The project ran between November 2021 and October 2022.
This project has focused on shaping biochar together with seeds, to make the application of vertical gardens more easily accessible. Through workshops, literature studies and experiments, the project has tried to shape biochar, pumice, and seeds into a solid material, to be able to integrate greenery in cities in a resource-efficient way.
The goal has been to form a substrate consisting of biochar, pumice, and seeds into a solid material. This material simplifies the storage, planning, application and assembly of Greenworks’ modular facade panels, and therefore enhances the integration of vertical greenery in cities, to ultimately promote ecosystem services.
Participants
