Indoors: a suspended green ceiling
In the lounge area the ceiling becomes a green canopy: a suspended vertical garden offering a visual break from concrete and glass. The wooden pillars are decorated with artificial climbers for a natural growth effect.
Outdoors: UV resistant green panels
The outdoor structures are clad with 100×100 cm artificial green panels with anti-UV protection, assembled for seamless visual continuity and designed to withstand sun and changing weather while keeping a stable colour.
Nature and design for visitors
The result turns a commercial space into an area for pausing and relaxing, with greenery that needs very little maintenance. The same panel system is the basis of Living Pattern™.
