GREEN IS HOT
GREEN IS HEALTHY – Green purifies the air and green has a positive effect on the recovery of patients (parks, trees, roof gardens, living walls)
GREEN IS ENERGY – Green stimulates exercise, sports and walking (parks, roof gardens).
GREEN IS BUSINESS – Green has a big economic impact
GREEN IS LIVE – Green is very important for the liveability of residential areas

An important aspect of our designs in the past 15 years that has appealed to clients and governments around the world is the application of the Green City theory in the designs. After all, green is “in” and sustainability is “business”. The profits of green space far outweigh the costs, but not everyone realizes that. Green in cities is not only good for aesthetics, ecology and health, but also for the economy. A city with the right trees in the right place can help solve many of our environmental problems. It seems simple and obvious, but it is unbelievable how rarely it is applied in green projects.

Green is not the only solution, but there is no solution without green. The future Green City is being built today. An important aspect of our designs in the past 15 years that has appealed to clients and governments around the world is the application of the Green City theory in the designs.
