Chilean High Rise Wrapped in a Living Green Wall

  • Chilean High Rise Wrapped in a Living Green Wall
    Lately we've seen some incredible projects that make great use of the insulating and air-purifying benefits of green walls. The latest to strike our eye is this clean-lined office surrounded by the rolling Bío Bío hills in the center of Concepción, Chile. Conceived by Enrique Browne Arquitectos, the building makes extensive use of locally-sourced materials and will be enveloped in a leafy green facade overflowing with bougainvillea, jasmine, and plumbago. The vegetation is now growing and it is expected to cover the entire facade of the building in two more years.
