Sofa + High Speed Trains = Electricity

Especially designed to be used within subway stations, this sofa is capable of harvesting the power of strong wing currents that occur every time a high speed train passes by. The sofa is equipped with a fan and an electric motor at either side to convert kinetic energy of wind currents into electric energy, and inside, it has batteries to store the generated energy.

People who use the subway can utilize this stored energy to recharge their mobile phones. To make this process much more convenient, the sofa holds a number of charging lines, each one supporting a specific mobile brand.

And, in order to make the design more visually pleasing, all the charging lines are kept intermingled with the plants grown at the back of the sofa.
