Living Walls open up facades as a living space. Thanks to sophisticated technology, plants can hold and develop in and on the fleece.
The Vertiko Living-Wall forms a self-supporting, ventilated facade. This way plants and irrigation have no contact with the actual structure. The air conditioning effect of such a building envelope supports and optimizes the most modern methods of innovative construction technology. The "rocky city" can be much more liveable.
The possibility of using many different woody plants and perennials opens up almost unlimited design possibilities: exciting plant pictures with many colors and flowers or restrained green.
Optically, a green "fur" appears, which seems to be fused with the facade. The ecological and structural-physical potentials of this system are considerable and ultimately pay for themselves by saving on air conditioning costs and preserving the building fabric.
