LONDON, England (CNN) -- As a product designer, Agustin Otegui's has to "think big" about the objects he creates. From novel portable chairs made out of shovels to chrome radiators that look like modern works of art, he recasts the mundane in a modernist and functional new light. The Nano Vent Skin forms an organic skin around a building providing its energy needs. Yet when he got thinking about how he could help with solutions to mitigate climate change he started thinking small. Very small, in fact. His futuristic concept is called the Nano Vent-Skin (NVS) and the design -- to wrap buildings in an organic lattice skin made up of micro wind turbines -- is radical.
