New Delhi, June 25 (ANI): Architects have resorted to using roof gardens, green walls and natural methods of ventilation to make architecture more eco-friendly in this period of climate change.
Shortage of resources, environmentally responsible construction, sustainability and energy efficiency are increasingly gaining importance, Multivision Multimedia reported.
In the coming years, a sea of green, consisting of trees, flowers and tendrils, will gradually conquer sterile high-rise facades, creating a wholly new urban landscape in the process.
The trend toward Green Architecture is epitomized by one current project in particular, a complex named Bosco Verticale - "Vertical Forest".
In this project, two high-rises are home to as many trees as a 2,470-acre area of forest, and so create a green oasis in the heart of Milan, Italy.
Emporis, which is the international provider of building data, has taken the upcoming completion of this prestigious project as an opportunity to compile a list of the most exciting examples of Green Architecture. (ANI)
