The concept of living green is central to sustainable architecture. My exploration of this theme likely involves innovative designs that harmonize with nature and promote ecological balance. Living Green reflects a commitment to sustainability, emphasizing the importance of ecological balance in design.
A living green wall is a vertical wall that is partially or completely covered in vegetation, which can provide various environmental and aesthetic benefits. I created some drawings and models of living green walls in 1989 as part of Time Machine project. One example is a living green wall that covers the facade of a building and creates a contrast between the natural and the artificial.
