Vertical Forest

architec共存的ture and nature in Urban Planning led Boeri to createVertical Forest,a sustainable, residential building complex with facades covered in trees and plants. It is a model ofmetropolitan reforestation, that conceives vegetation as an essential element of architecture; it serves to promote the formation of an urban ecosystem through the vertical densification of greenery. The first example of Vertical Forest was inaugurated in October2014in Milan, in thePorta Nuova Isolaarea. It consists of two residential towers of 110 m and 76 m height which host 800 trees , 4500 shrubs and 15000 plants. The diversity of vegetation helps to develop the microclimate producing oxygen, absorbing CO2 and protecting against pollution. Vertical Forest has been the winner of theBest Tall Building Worldwide Awardin 2015 for its extraordinary implementation of vegetation at such scale and height.
