Vertikale hager

Hvem ville vel ikke hatt en slik frodig grønn vegg innendørs? Vertikale hager som dette er et flott tilskudd i butikker og kontorlokaler. Det er utrolig hva levende organismer gjør for et miljø. Og hagen står i nydelig kontrast til de ellers så minimalistiske linjene. Alle disse bildene er fra et firma som heter Vertical Garden Design. Firmaet ble startet av den svenske landskapsarkitekten Michael Hellgren. Dette er hva de skriver på deres nettsted om konseptet:

Who wouldn’t love to have a “green” indoor wall like this? Vertical Gardens is such a great addition to shops and office interior. It’s amazing what living organisms as this can do to a space. The gardens stand in great contrast to the minimalistic architecture. All these images are from a company called Vertical Garden Design. The company was started by the Swedish landscape architect, Michael Hellgren. This is what they write on their site about the concept:

“GROWING PLANTS ON A VERTICAL SURFACE HAS BEEN POSSIBLE AFTER STUDIES OF NATURAL VERTICAL LOCATIONS — PLACES WITHOUT SOIL WHERE IN NATURE THERE MAY BE A GREAT ABUNDANCE OF PLANT SPECIES. THE TECHNIQUE IMITATES THESE LOCATIONS, SO IT ALSO FUNCTION WITHOUT SOIL, HAVING THE BENEFITS OF MAKING THE SURFACE VERY LIGHT AND EASY TO TAILOR TO ANY GEOMETRY.“
