Green roofs, living walls, and rain gardens are innovative solutions that promote sustainability and enhance urban environments.
Green roofs, covered in vegetation, provide numerous benefits. They improve air quality, reduce stormwater runoff, and help insulate buildings, reducing energy consumption. Living walls, vertical gardens installed on building facades, add greenery to limited spaces, improving aesthetics and air quality. They also provide thermal insulation and reduce noise pollution.
Rain gardens, designed to capture and filter rainwater, help mitigate flooding and recharge groundwater. They create habitats for wildlife and add natural beauty to urban areas.
Together, these green infrastructure elements contribute to a healthier, greener, and more resilient urban landscape.
