Currently, SMIT is working on a number of installations set to proceed sometime this year. The University of Utah has secured funding to install Solar Ivy on the south-facing facade of the Orson Spencer Hall building. SMIT is working with Science World Vancouver to develop an innovative new exhibit space and will install a Solar Ivy wall at the Environment Museum of the Montreal Biosphere. There are also plans for a residential application as well as a screen on a parking garage, and now the company is taking orders for more projects. SMIT is also working on a tensile solar shade.

    I looked at all the pictures above. They look more like thousands of tiny little fly swatters and why cover the pretty townhouse with thousands of sticky notes. Maybe they serve as reminder that grid electricity is cheaper than solar or the fact it does help to hide the uglier buildings.
