A Wally Oasis
Thinking about how ecology plays a role in urban spaces is a re-emerging trend in design. The Symbiotic Green Wall takes the idea of wall beyond its dividing role. It provides a vertical system for an entire ecosystem to exist. The wall collects, purifies and redistributes water around the site using natural processes. A digital monitoring system sheds light on water usage and overall health. It even cleans itself with purified water. I would love to see more of these sculptural installations in big cities around the world.
Designers: Kooho Jung & Hayeon Kelly Choi

Interesting. Some plants do live on walls, although not grass. This is an art project for a museum or a “green” campus maybe. The way you describe how to irrigate this wall is not believable. But I hope you make it to find out.

Imagine one 200 miles long in Beijing China?
Hong Kong China, Hanoi Vietnam, Sydney Aus,

Great idea. Build this for 10 miles & gauge results.
Then expand from Proven data for other markets.
Must for Philadelphia PA.
