Living Walls & Vertical Gardens
|
WHAT IS A LIVING WALL?Living walls are vertical surfaces or facades covered with plants and attached to the building using a modular planter structure. Unlike walls that will have naturally occurring plants such as ivy, living walls will have irrigation systems to maintain healthy plant life and keep your wall looking beautiful – whether inside or out.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A LIVING WALL?WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A LIVING WALL?
We believe in reconnecting with nature. As our environment continues to become urbanised, our natural spaces diminish. Studies have shown that nature and greenery positively impacts our mental wellbeing, both reducing stress and anxiety whilst boosting productivity and creativity. Living walls allow us to incorporate nature into our dwellings in a space efficient way, improving air quality and also creating something spectacular to look at. |

Living Wall Systems
Over the past 8 years we’ve designed, installed and maintained many square metres of living wall and along the way we’ve accumulated a vast amount of experience and knowledge and we use this to make every project a success...

CONSULTATION
In order to create a unique living wall, we can start by meeting with you at your project location or we can begin the process just from some images and dimensions. We’ll discuss your ideas, view potential spaces and answer any questions that you may have. We also take into account the nitty gritty: measuring the amount of natural light available and factor in exposure to elements such as wind, rain, etc. We strive to pay attention to all the details to ensure your vision becomes our vision. DESIGN Our main goal is to create a living work of art. Each vertical garden is unique in design. We select from a wide range of species, based on the environment where it will be built. We consider color, texture, pattern and size in order to achieve the greatest visual result. As plants grow and change with the seasons, so too does the appearance of your living wall. Our goal is to create a natural installation that is interesting and beautiful through all seasons of the year. |
INSTALLATION
Here comes the fun part! Installation can take anywhere between a few hours or a couple of months depending on the size of the living wall. We happily work around your business or personal hours and schedule a time that is best for you. Our team is efficient, organised and tidy. Find out more -> MAINTENANCE We offer a full service maintenance program, where you can arrange to have one of our “plant whisperers” come by for regular plant maintenance. You can schedule your on-site plant care visits to water, prune, and take care of all your plant's needs. Find out more -> |
