CLIPPY
We believe that sustainability means
taking time to perceive the importance
of the home we all share – the nature.
By intuitively integrating sustainability
into modern people's lives on a daily
basis, Slohome restores an appreciation
for the elements of water, air, and light.
Small behaviors can aggregate to make
a big difference, and that small products
can make big impacts on the quality of life.
Rather than conveying an explicit message,
Clippy is intentionally subtle; creating moments
that magnify the beauty of natural elements.
When you dry your clothes out in the sun,
the laundry peg's solar panels capture energy
from the sun and convert it into light at night.
At the urban scale, constellations of Clippies hanging on neighborhood balconies influences
the landscape of the community, visualizing
the spread of sustainable culture.
