I can photoshop trees onto an otherwise ugly, metal-screen clad building and it would look quite nice too. It's an interesting concept, and it's good that they're trying something new, but even in a best case scenario this building will not look as 'green' as the renders suggest for many, many years after construction.

It would be cool of the trees for this building were fruit trees. Love it! What a great looking building!
