Marché des Halles in Avignon |
Both the term and the subject were invented by french landscape architect Patrick Blanc, who has developed a special module to which plants can be attached quite easily.
The advantage of vertical gardens, or green walls, how they are also called more general, is not only their esthetic quality, but also their benefit for the house to which it is attached and the environment. The plants perform as natural regulators and catalysts for humidity and filtration, while the environment takes huge advantage in better air quality (don´t want to start with Co2 + plants > O2, you know this...)
Vertical gardens will be essentially important for our future planet, as space on the ground is getting rare and precious, so space needs to be used as efficient as possible, which means: vertically.
So therefore, that is a really good starting point for the development of further vertical garden modules and systems.
