They are so wicked. They designed their latest turbine with a vend to increase wind airflow and didn’t realise that they gave the turbines a flower type look!!! Absolutely brilliant!!. Here is a brilliant article which talked about making wind turbines more part of the nature and blend them in their local surroundings.

We can make wind turbines more appealing by blending their color with the surroundings or diminishing their contrast; being environmentally friendly while actually looking as part of it, rather than looking harsh and mechanical.

The tubular steel towers could be painted green, like the prairie they are sitting on and the blades like the petals of a flower. The center of the blades would be colored according to the appropriate variation of flower. Daisies, for instance, come in such varieties as Crazy Shasta Daisy, Golden Marguerite Daisy, Clara Curtis Daisy, Black-Eyed Susan Daisy, and Little Miss Muffet Daisy.

Other color patterns would blend with wheat or corn fields. Imagine a field of giant sunflowers or tulips of various colors. Even during the dry season or winter, they would showcase their colors, giving a hint of “greener times” to come. Artists can challenge themselves and create works of art for those who pass by. Without realising, Tamer did exactly that! Here also a cool video:
