Just like Frankenstein’s monster this green wall created by Canadian studio Bricault Design for a house in LA was said to be inconceivable.
The plant-covered extension has living walls on three sides that not only visually link with the green roof and su
rrounding landscape but contribute to the passive systems that keep the house cool in lieu of air conditioning. Solar panels supply the home’s power while the green roof provides a solid supply of vegetables, watered by captured rainwater and recycled grey water. A central sculptural staircase leads up to the green roof but also doubles as a chimney by drawing cool air down into the house.In hindsight, it’s a much better idea than putting some dead body parts together and charging them with electricity, hey Victor?
