The climate crisis, extreme weather events, declining biodiversity, and air pollution in urban areas are prompting urgent action. A societal shift has already begun. How can architecture contribute to a paradigm shift? Is architecture not just about retrofitting and recycling, but also about being green? Can architecture be an ecosystem in itself? What is blue-green architecture? Architects are being called upon to unlock the potential of plants as design tools, particularly in the development of spaces and cities, and in the design of buildings themselves.

"Green Facades" provides architects with the necessary expertise to work competently with the living architecture of building envelopes. The book aims to spark interest in green architecture, presenting a catalog of successful project examples that demonstrate how vertical greening can be successfully implemented in urban spaces around the world.
