Vertical gardens are always cool and sophisticated – they are beautiful, eye-catching and leave most of people with their mouths slightly agape. That is exactly the situation with Jose Maria Chofre installation.

He managed to create a fantastic six-story vertical garden along the façade of a children’s library in the town square of San Vicente del Raspeig, Spain.

The garden looks amazing. It has been built on a dividing wall between the library and an existing apartment building.

Love the idea!~

Thanks to some really creative people we are welcome to enjoy such projects as this gorgeous plaza near the wharf of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The following plaza not only looks amazing but perfectly shows the connection between the ocean and the ecosystems existing on the Canary islands. This building was designed by Herzog + de Meuron, and it introduces incredible green space for those who adore gardens and everything about them.

According to the history many years ago the plaza was the site of a “Castillo,” and right now it still looks like the old castle.
