Urban spaces
The vertical garden along Carrer Berlín acts like a huge, 250 m2 lung tasked with cleaning the air of dust, smoke and pollution, as well as providing shelter for several species of animals and plants. The demolition of an old building at the confluence of Carrer Berlin and Marqués de Sentmenat left a partition wall exposed, creating a special impact given its high visibility. The project for remodelling this wall, turning it into the city’s first vertical garden; uses living matter as its premise. A metallic structure provides the skeletal support for the garden, with several balconies holding its plants. The garden reaches the ground along a stone wall that extends to the chamfer’s surface. It consists of a green base that various coloured flowering plants grow from, changing colour throughout the year. A piece of nature that encourages colonisation from several animal species, mainly birds.
