As you might already know, Inhabitat is reporting from Osaka, Japan this week, where we stumbled upon lovely ivy-wrapped building right down the street from our hotel. Not only is this verdant structure thriving with overgrown green walls, upon further inspection we also realized that it’s a bike storage garage - even better! Click through our gallery for our photos of both the exterior and interior of this fascinating building.

En nog een keer Osaka, Japan. De italiaanse architect Gaetano Pesce heeft deze wand ontworpen.
Jemig…. Rotterdam laten we dit doen ergens! Misschien kunnen we de gevels van De Rotterdam nog aanpassen, Rem?

Vertical Forests in Italy!
About a hundred years ago in internet time I saw this article on the Creators Project tumblr about VERTICAL FORESTS IN ITALY. Sounds nuts right? Sounds like something I’d shout as I woke up from a weird dream I couldn’t explain. “Grmmriieee VERTICAL FORESTS IN ITALY!”
Anyway, this is no dream. This here is as real as the lasagna at Front Street Pizza. Architect Stefano Boeri has figured out a way to “reforest” Milan with two residential towers clad in trees. It recycles gray water and provides a home to some 900 trees and an untold number of smaller shrubs and plants.
If you had asked me how many plants I got on my last big run to the garden center I might have told you I had “an untold number of smaller shrubs and plants.” Thing is, they’re serious, this is actually going to be a forest. Check it!
This is my new go-to precedent for my practicum. I really hope that it is successful.

Our gorgeous Living Wall we created with Woolley Pockets - the modular soft pocket system that we LOVE! Here we used 4 “Wally Threes” to create this 25sf of living beauty.

Photos from Aden Earthwork’s Exhibition at Canada Blooms, our nation’s largest flower and garden show.
Theme: ‘Recurrence’ designed by Aden Earthworker, Deborah Vivas Marfisi. The rhythm of history: ideas lost and recovered, invented and re-invented, destroyed and rebuilt. The columnar towers of hydroponics resting in a pond bed are inspired by the recent resurgence of hydroponic agriculture and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
*Winner of Outstanding Use Of Interior Plants.
