Living wall façade A lightweight, modular living wall system�

The Living Rain-Screen

Wild Screen (working name): The system used hydroponics for nutrient and water delivery, and seeds are grown on-site rather than in greenhouses, making for more robust plants suited to their living environment.�

37 Goals

The system is designed to be visually appealing from day one, and to evolve over time to the delight of the onlooker. The intention is to make living walls cheaper and easier to specify, install and maintain than alternatives, and therefore more accessible to building owners and other stakeholders.�
