Description
Greened Architecture explores the integration of vegetation into the built environment as a key strategy for more sustainable and climate-responsive cities. Featuring green roofs, living façades, and interior greening systems, this approach shows how buildings can be transformed into dynamic, living environments that interact with natural systems.
The volume presents 52 international projects ranging from family homes to large office buildings that successfully implement greening strategies in diverse urban contexts. Supported by more than 550 photographs, drawings, and plans, the book provides a detailed visual and technical insight into how these systems are designed, constructed, and experienced.
