# Flintstone Architecture Home Rocks Under A Solar Umbrella By Going Like Sixty | Published 2009-01-06 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flintstone-architecture-home-rocks-under-solar-umbrella References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/01/06/my-homes-umbrella-is-better-than-yours/) Designer and architect Andreas Angelidakis is offering the design of her New Menir home on Yanko Design. It would be fascinating to see the interior concept for this mini Rock of Gilbraltor, but the exterior has a very cool feature: it has a [floral umbrella](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yoohome) which actually consists of solar panels that double as a wind turbine. Perfect for the beach side location. I think a nice [sunset orange](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-magarola) would be spectacular - or integrating panels that change randomly. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Solar Umbrella Homes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design and create homes with built-in floral umbrellas that consist of solar panels and double as wind turbines. - **Energy-efficient Architecture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop architectural designs that integrate solar panels and wind turbines for energy generation and sustainability. - **Renewable Energy Solutions:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the potential of combining solar panels and wind turbines in various applications to increase renewable energy production. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture and Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate solar panels and wind turbines into architectural designs to create sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. - **Renewable Energy:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: The integration of solar panels and wind turbines in renewable energy solutions can revolutionize the industry. - **Home Construction:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce new building methods that incorporate solar panels and wind turbines for energy generation and sustainability. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nature-Inspired Hilltop Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/las-rocas.md) - [Stone-Finished Coastal Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matopos.md) - [Origami-Style Shelled Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/copper-bottom.md) - [Colorfully Bright Hillside Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canary-house.md) - [Local Stone-Based Beach Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-quinto-sol.md) - [Off-Grid Oceanside Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campos-studio.md) - [Textured Local Stone Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-atrium-house.md) - [Scattered Boulder-Inspired Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rockbound.md) - [Earthy Off-Grid Textural Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folly-mojave.md)
