Green Spaces
Design and planning of green spaces that integrate nature into urban and built environments.
Green spaces represent a critical intersection of landscape design, urban planning, and environmental stewardship. Designers working in this area create interventions that bring vegetation, gardens, and natural systems into cities and buildings, addressing both ecological and social needs.
The community explores diverse approaches including rooftop and vertical gardens, temporary green installations, facade greening, pocket parks, and biotechnological spaces that prioritize human wellbeing alongside environmental restoration.
