Vertical Garden Store and Green Roofs
In addition to the post regarding vertical gardens on walls in urban areas…thrilled to see a very stylish example on the Firth’s eco conscious store in London adopting the idea. Learned about the store, Eco Age, on treehugger.com which is a great resource for all things green and emerging! As can be seen from the photograph of the exterior of the store, the upper story is clothed in a very calming green, beautiful to see in the city.
WorldGreenRoof.org shows other examples of greenery being incorporated into building design on roofs. Featured on the link are some stunning photographs, expanding on this brilliant idea.
