Green walls offer almost limitless design possibilities. Due to variety in constitution, shape and colour of individual plants, it is possible to create separate areas of different colour with smooth transitions as well as colourful ornaments consisting of several kinds of contrasting plants. This generates a dynamic functional image which completes the overall design of the given space.
Green wall is not difficult to implement. The choice of suitable place for its placement is crucial – green wall can be placed on existing load-bearing wall or a completely new wall can be built. It is necessary to provide water and electricity supply. The construction of the wall is fast, lasting only few weeks.
Interior Green Walls
Exterior design is subject to light and weather conditions. However, these conditions can also be used for interesting effects. Plants adjust their colour and flowering time to changing seasons. This enables creation of impressive design changeable in time. The exterior also allows for use of larger plants, including various types of bushes.

Green walls as an architectural element:
Sound insulation
Green wall increases soundproofing of other walls and improves the acoustics because plants and substrate absorb sound which eliminates reverberation.
Oxygenation
Plants use photosynthesis to absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. If they cover the entire wall, they have significant impact on the quality of air we breathe.
Absorption of pollutants
Green wall absorbs harmful substances into the air escaping from man-made materials such as plastic, linoleum, adhesives, paints, etc.
