One of the most interesting structure concept involving green buildings is called Veg.itecture and is based on vegetation as the primary component of a building. Until now it didn’t get too much attention, but Ken Yeang looks to change this situation. Ken is one of the most active promoters of this architecture and his designs are considered masterpieces.
Most of Ken’s buildings are bioclimatic skyscrapers, which means that the structures is alligned with the sun, adjusted to the climatic conditions throughout the year and makes use of lighting and ventilation.
I find this concept really inspiring because it can transform a structure from "dead" to "living", which translates to a harmonic co-existence among nature. By respecting nature, nature will respect us and we will be living in a healthy, clean and above all eco-friendly environment. Post your thoughts!
