Philippe Starck has recently decided to come out of retirement and save the world. After declaring that “design is dead” and that “everything he had ever designed was useless” he’s now churning out plans and details for objects of sustainable design. Working with the Pramac energy group, the first off the drawing board is a home mini wind turbine designed for people to use at home to generate their own wind power.

The mini-turbine is made of clear polycarbonate, is available in stainless steel, signal orange, or transparent, and is capable of providing 20-60% of the power needs for the average home.

Starck has dubbed it the “Democratic Ecology” personal wind turbine and it made its inaugural debut at the recent Greenenergy Design show in Milan, Italy.
