What is entasis in architecture?

Entasis is the very slight swelling of a column shaft. In classical architecture, it was used together with the natural taper towards the top to correct optical illusions and give a structure a greater sense of harmony, balance and solidity.

Why was entasis used in Greek columns?

Entasis was not used purely as decoration. It was a design solution related to visual perception, helping a column appear more balanced and harmonious to the observer.

What is the relationship between entasis and engineering?

Entasis demonstrates how form, perception and engineering can be designed together. It is a historical example of how formal design choices can contribute to the visual legibility, perceived balance and presence of a structure.

How is ENESSERE micro wind inspired by classical architecture?

ENESSERE micro wind does not imitate columns from antiquity. Instead, it reinterprets essential design principles such as proportion, verticality, balance, attention to form and a relationship with space, with the aim of integrating technology into architecture and landscape.

What are the characteristics of the ENESSERE micro wind turbine tower?

The tower supporting ENESSERE micro wind turbines widens at the base to a diameter of 40 cm and gradually tapers towards the top, reaching 22 cm. It is formed through a multi-faceted rolling process that evokes the verticality and rhythm of classical architectural columns.

Why does the ENESSERE micro wind turbine tower have a wider base?

A wider base contributes to the stability of the structure and communicates a visual sense of balance. In this way, the geometry of the tower responds both to design requirements and to the perception of the surrounding space.

What is the purpose of the tower’s faceted surfaces?

The faceted surfaces enhance the interaction between the tower and light while contributing to structural stiffness. They also allow the tower to move beyond the role of a simple support and become a recognisable architectural element.

Can micro wind power become an architectural element?

Yes. When technology, materials, proportions and the relationship with the surrounding context are designed as an integrated whole, a micro wind system can evolve from energy infrastructure into an architectural element that engages with the landscape.

Why is landscape integration important in micro wind projects?

An object intended to remain in public or private spaces for many years should perform its function while also relating thoughtfully to the place that hosts it. Landscape integration treats technology as part of an architectural and environmental design project.

What is ENESSERE’s design principle?

ENESSERE develops vertical micro wind solutions in which beauty and technology are not separate elements. Its guiding principle is that form is not a decorative detail, but part of the function and identity of energy infrastructure.

ENESSERE on the Archello Awards 2026 Longlist

Home » Blog » ENESSERE on the Archello Awards 2026 Longlist

ENESSERE has been selected for the Longlist of the Archello Awards 2026 for Building Tech, earning the prestigious Longlist Badge for its PEGASUS WIND TURBINE.

For us, this is a highly meaningful recognition, as it comes from Archello, one of the leading international platforms for architecture, design, and innovation in the built environment.

Being included in the Longlist means seeing a vision that has guided ENESSERE from the very beginning officially recognized: taking design-driven micro wind energy beyond its purely technological dimension and transforming it into an element capable of engaging with architecture, landscape, and the identity of places.

This is the principle behind our Architectural Energy Design approach: creating solutions that generate clean energy without compromising on formal quality, visual presence, or integration with the surrounding space.

Energy becomes architecture.

At ENESSERE, we believe that technology does not necessarily need to be hidden. It can become part of the project, express a deliberate choice, and contribute to the character of a place.

ENESSERE’s small wind turbines are not camouflaged and not concealed: they are deliberately expressed.

Being included in the Archello Awards 2026 Longlist strengthens ENESSERE’s journey and confirms the value of a unique approach in which energy, design, and architecture become part of the same language.

This achievement motivates us to continue developing design-driven micro wind energy as a contemporary, distinctive presence capable of bringing together sustainability, technology, and beauty.
