Exploration of green wall & green roofs designed on ecology purposes
Cities under the burden of population growth present problems regarding connections to nature due to lack of green areas such as parks.

City dwellers feel the lack of green in their lives leading them to place plants in relation to a buildings. The selection of plants mostly depend on the climate, costemics and life span. The study provides information on green roof and green wall implementations as well as presenting significant projects in order to furnish an insight on the global importance of the subject. The main approach of the study is relating green practices with architecture and design related guidelines to be able to explore various qualities of such implementations. Literature provided in the study relate with the examples selected presenting regulations, goals, values, impact and advantages of green implementations.
