Roel de Boer’ s New English Roofing Tile is a new green building product that could transform urban roofs into vibrant gardens. The plastic tiles are shaped like triangular pockets that can be placed on top of existing tiles, and they were designed for both plants and animals to live and nest on city rooftops. Like flat green roofs, the tiles will provide great insulation , energy savings, and they could also help to reduce stormwater runoff. + Roel de Boer Photos by Roel de Boer Permalink | Add to del.icio.us | digg Post tags: Air quality , Biodiversity , Botanical , dutch design , green products , green roof , New English Roofing Tile , pockets , Roel de Boer , triangular

The Sunseeker Duo is based on the original Sunseeker I model designed in 1990 for cross-country flights. The fuel-free plane features solar cells 50 percent more powerful than those used by the previous version; this allows the plane to climb for up to 20 minutes. After leaving Germany, the team led by Eric and Irena Raymond will transport the Sunseeker Duo to Italy for further test flights.
