The greenscreen gsTree modular trellis system has won the 2021 Architizer A+ Product Award for conceptual design, the largest awards program in architecture and design. This unique 3D trellising system forms a tree-like shape that elevates and then spreads, growing plants to 10-feet heights.
Similar to other greenscreen modular trellis systems, the gsTree creates three-dimensional shapes that allow for plant installations similar to trees planted down a city sidewalk. Basically, you can create your own trees out of your favorite plants or an entire park full of them.

What’s really cool about the gsTree trellis is that it brings new ways to use low-lying plants to create overhead shade. The trellis could also create privacy fencing to fill vertical or overhead spaces.
City parks could use the gsTree for year-round sculpture-like installations that bloom in spring. GsTree exceeds 10-feet height on request. Finishes include black, bronze, terra, silver, green and white, with custom colors also available on request.
Biophilic design is nothing new, but the greenscreen gsTree creates new design options for hardscapes, public pavilions or home gardenscapes.
“I believe that our organization and product offerings provide a framework for architects, designers and contractors to realize their vision and see it come to life, all while taking into consideration the environment and budgetary demands,” said President of greenscreen Kory Levoy. “We are an organization whose focus is on sustainable growth, and on doing things the right way.”
Do you have a lawn that needs an arbor? Want to create a living shelter for a garden bench? The gsTree will fulfill all your biophilic wishes.
