In the historic and cultural city of Milan, Italy, a construction project has begun on two towers that will not only reshape the skyline of the city, but also refresh the air that they breathe. Bosco Verticale is a vertical forest project at 110 and 76 meters in height, and is part of the initiative to revitalize the Porta Nuova section of the city. The towers are part of a green initiative, and it is hoped that these revolutionary designs will become a successful platform and prototype for new buildings across the globe, created to reduce waste and blend man-made creations with natural beauty and benefits.
For a more in-depth look, here is the promotional video for the project.
What Sparks Our Fire: Conceptualizing buildings that might change the concrete jungle to a green city forest.
How much would you pay to live in one of these buildings?
