Bosco Verticale: Milan’s Award-Winning Vertical Forest

-

Bosco Verticale is an extraordinary skyscraper located in the Porta Nuova district of Milan, Italy. Designed by the architectural firm Boeri Studio, it features approximately 900 trees and 2,000 shrubs, creating a lush vertical forest that seamlessly blends architecture and nature.
Design and Construction:
The towers are equipped with specially designed balconies to support large trees and shrubs, all sustained by an automatic irrigation system to ensure consistent watering.

Environmental Impact:
1. Air Quality: The trees and plants help absorb pollutants from the air, improving air quality in the surrounding area.
2. Temperature Regulation: The vegetation aids in regulating the building’s temperature, reducing dependency on air conditioning.
3. Noise Reduction: The trees and plants absorb noise pollution, creating a serene living environment for residents.
