Panasonic Corporation has opened the doors to its “Photosynthesis” concept installation, showcasing its total solutions for creating, saving, storing and managing energy during the course of the Milano Salone del Mobile 2012, a design expo in Milan, Italy.

The installation, which is the first outdoor exhibit for Panasonic, was designed by architect Akihisa Hirata, whose organic vision of living, breathing architecture reflects the open yet interdependent symbiotic cycles in nature, says Panasonic.
Salone del Mobile runs from April 17 – 22.
