Solar Punk is a new, progressive way of thinking about the design of the future. The future is coming fast, and we need new ideas to keep up. Solar Punk takes an optimistic spin which ties in with re-invention, harmony with nature, and sustainability. Recycling old ideas and innovation is what drives Solar Punk to be more prominent. The future holds many exciting ideas, and they will manifest themselves, with Solar Punk leading the way. In the future, a heliocentric way of life will be the center of everyone's moral compass. the sun is heavily worshiped, which allows the rebirth of Egyptian heritage to be warranted. The sun is a guide and the center of attention for everyone.
I created a new, and fresh Egyptian Inspired fan. With a long pole and feathers, Egyptian fans have been around for a long time. I decided to take this outdated idea, and put a fresh spin on it. One interacts with it by simply holding it, or fanning themselves or someone else. I made this fan because a sign of wealth and power were these decorative fan. Since the sun is heavily worshipped, an Egyptian fan is heavily linked with the sun. It is a way to honor the sun, and also show that you have power and elegance. This piece would be for those who have higher taste, and are in a higher class of hierarchy.
