THEAustralia is anxiously awaiting the opening of the vertical garden tallest in the world, one of the architect's new works Patrick White, which will be hosted by the city of Sydney. One Central Park, one of the city's residential buildings, is surrounded by climbing plants that branch out onto its facade, built mostly of glass.
According to Patrick Blanc, the building itself, together with the vertical garden itself, will represent an architectural work that will guarantee a truly special result in the creation of a whole new city, focused on greenery and nature. Sydney citizens and visitors will have the impression that the greenery has reached the buildings directly from the nearby park.
Numerous varieties of plants will cover 50% of the external surface of the building, from the second to the thirty-third floors. Among them we will find 190 species native to Australia and 160 plants native to other areas of the world. The roofing of the building will also be possible thanks to the replacement of the soil with some synthetic materials, such as moss.
The architectural structure of the building was specially designed to project the sunlight towards certain specific points of the vertical garden, thanks to the use of special motorized mirrors, which will be able to direct the light rays towards the surrounding green. Who will manage to win one of the 624 apartments, will have shops, restaurants and offices directly on the ground floor.
Thanks to plants and natural light, it will be possible cut energy costs to power the apartments of the building and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. Now Patrick Blanc is ready to devote himself to a new project. It is a green skyscraper in Kuala Lumpurin Malaysia, a construction that could prove to be even higher and more ambitious.
