The “O” is a multifunctional structure that unites energy generation, water harvesting, and social spaces into a single, poetic gesture – supporting the Marou community in their transition toward a sustainable future.

Shaped as a 40-meter-wide circle, the installation blends gently into the rich Fijian landscape, while actively contributing to its vitality. Its elevated solar canopy, crafted from over 300 monocrystalline solar panels, generates renewable energy, collects rainwater, and shelters over 600 square meters of shaded space beneath, offering a platform for everyday community use.

Constructed primarily from timber, the structure embodies a dialogue between ecological sensitivity and technological innovation, with its solar canopy rising as a distinctive symbol of resilience and regeneration.

The project will demonstrate what’s possible for sustainable infrastructure across the Pacific and will serve as a pilot case for all Fiji.
