In recent times, heavy discussions of how solar en�ergy is the center of green energy and providing clean, sustainable, reliable, low-cost energy for con�stant use in homes, offices, universities etc. They shine light on the importance of living a more green and sustainable led life, as living in the middle east shows us how minor changes and attempts towards the wellbeing of the environment have led to major impacts. The future goal is to boost these sustain�able impacts and thus we try to spread this knowl�edge among the students. As Heriot Watt students our university goals speak loud on shaping tomorrow together and celebrating each other. By excelling in research and enterprise we use our academic endeavor to make these out�standing impacts on society by addressing world is�sues with a collaborative approach of different fields. Inspiring the world and other generations

These stations act as information desk guiding the visitors to their point of interest. The workshop tables are created around the already existing bases of the trees in the site. Attached to the top of these trees are tensile canopy shading devices that create an inspiring interaction between light and shadow. The center stage pavilion overlooks the workshop. It is a basic frame structure, with rolls of paper attached to the stings that are hooked onto the frame. These are rolls are colored and assembled onto the frame by the visitors, offering a community-driven, handcrafted, and interactive exhibition various clubs, courses and organizations from a variety of fields.

The exhibition is held throughout the extended queue of drapes. A simple and cost-effective modular, where the drapes are hanging from the top, cut out in differ ent shapes and lengths to create a soft ombre effect as you walk through the exhibition walkway, which dances with the wind during this wonderful season. In terms of the color of the cloth, we opted for shades of green as it relates to sustainability, but also green is also the color of growth, the color of spring, of renew al and rebirth. Throughout the exhibition pieces of art, and mini equipment samples related to solar energy will be displayed to show people the existing technolo gy.
The hammock area allows a place of relaxation and spots to pause with families and friends. It is carefully shaded by the surrounding trees and overarching canopies along the walkway. The layout of the festival is pretty open and connects a lot of space, however for the hammock area we wanted to create a sense of privacy. Especially from the stage and central area, we decided to block of the view with the mural
The food stalls are centralized around Fili restaurant’s area. The stalls roof are made with different colored acrylics to once again show the play of light and help visitors appreciate the “natural exhibition” by the sun. The 1m tall plant boxes are extended and made into seatings. The seating area is also heavily decorated with banners from sponsors and our main vision for the festival.

The exhibition is held throughout the extended queue of drapes. A simple and cost-effective modular, where the drapes are hanging from the top, cut out in different shapes and lengths to create a soft ombre effect as you walk through the exhibition walkway, which dances with the wind during this wonderful season. This idea of layering was inspired by an art piece done by Naoki Sasaki Japanese. Contemporary Floral Art. In terms of the colour of the cloth, we opted for shades of green as it relates to sustainability, but also green is also the colour of growth, the colour of spring, of renewal and rebirth. A calm, restorative, and serene refuge, even by just visual access
