项目概况:

The high-density towers respectively 80 meters and 112 meters tall are the first green apartment that experiments with the integration of a lush landscape within the facade of the architecture. The design concept comes from one Tree Planting activity. The stairs of the mutually staggered concrete balconies serve as a nursery of planting trees with more than 900 adult trees, shrubs and plants. The towers together will have the capacity to hold 480 big and medium sized trees, 250 small size trees, 11,000 groundcover plants and 5,000 shrubs – the equivalent of a hectare of forest.

This planting form will not only reduced the area that the city greening plants occupying, but also have very good environmental protection effect. The residents of the two building will not just humans and plants, and birds, insects and small animals usually in Milan squares.
