The world's first Green Apartments,Lausanne, Swiss - Apartments located in Lausanne, Switzerland in this degrading-gadang will become the first vertical green building in the world. Designed by architect Stefano Boeri Italy, origin, building 117 m it has more than 100 cedar trees, bushes, and 18000 6000 plants. Apartments named La Tour des Cedres is scheduled to begin in 2017.
384 ft Tower, called "La Tour des Cedres," is expected to be built in the year 2017 in Lausanne, Switzerland. the facade will support almost 10,000 square feet of green plants, some chic apartment with covered deck wood and ceiling-to-floor window. The theory of the idealists is the vegetation will improve local air quality while you set the temperature and noise levels within the unit. Whether it will help or hinder the bird population is guessing the tree of love-bird anyone, but not so much hit a high-rise window right next to the trees.
This is the third time the "vertical forest" designed by Stefano Boeri Architetti, Italy company behind "Bosco Verticale, a pair of tree-building" enshrined that opened last year in Milan. With "La Tour des Cedres," Stefano Boeri seems to be making good on a dream injection plant into every corner of the city planning. He also talked about cleaning up polluted sites using trees and build "an agricultural greenbelt" around Milan to produce local food.
Should the world stand back and applaud on the new concept of the scraper? A few years ago, Eric Jaffe discusses the pros and cons of the project, citing the argument made by the journalist Tim De Chant. Here are some of the possible downsides:
The first post-De Chant it gives some practical reasons will not work to have a tree that grows on the upper floors of tall buildings. (None of this structure has been completed, according to De Chant, with Bosco Verticale closest to completion.) If the wind doesn't get them, De Chant fear extreme temperatures will. Beyond that, he wondered about the logistics of maintaining the small forests outside its natural habitat. Advocates of urban trees in him like the idea, a student of plant physiology in itself have a lot of doubts.
But suppose the designers Bosco Verticale (and another vertical forest) has contributed to this problem from the beginning. In the second post, De Chant wrote that he still found the idea a bit gimmicky-"how to make your building sustainable feel without having to be so." He calculated that if you take in an estimated $ 4,250,000 that it costs to enter the tree in the forest of vertical, you can restore at least 2,125 hectares forest horizontal. Instead, Bosco Verticale will host 2.5 hectares.
