You can put plants on almost style of building. The Nox Hotel in Utrecht, the Netherlands, kept warm from the insulation of all that vegetation, soil, and moisture.

A design for school children in Vietnam to learn farming, ecology, and green architecture. We *can* construct the built world to be a beautiful and ecologically sustainable place. Let's create more. By VTN.Architects

This have been getting a bit too green (visually) around here. What do you thunk about this neon living wall installation? No reason why we can't bring more color into the greenosphere! 🌈 🎨

What do you think of a splash of neon over the green wall? I think it's really pretty. We could do a lot with this look. 💜💙💚
