Hanging Garden
Vertical gardens and green installations that integrate vegetation into architectural spaces and urban environments.
Hanging gardens represent a design approach where vegetation becomes structural and aesthetic element rather than ornament. This topic explores how plants can be integrated into building facades, interiors, and public spaces to create living systems that respond to their architectural context.
The community examines projects ranging from green facades and vertical planting systems to gardens embedded within buildings and landscapes. Work here includes residential gardens, commercial installations, urban interventions, and restaurants that treat vegetation as a primary design driver alongside traditional materials and forms.
