    Our friends at Ecolect, the go-to sustainable design and materials community, have launched a monthly spotlight on sustainable design called Limelight - and the first feature is tough act to follow. Teresita Cochran's sustainable design group, SMIT (Sustainably Minded Interactive Technology) has a compelling new project called GROW that's an innovative and aesthetically arresting solar and wind power solution. Combining the best of green tech and ecology, GROW draws inspiration from ivy growing on the side of a building - resulting in a hybrid energy delivery device of flexible, ivy-like fluttering solar leaves that provide power via both sun and wind....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/smits-grow2-project-new-solar-and-wind-solutions/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
