Detail, Tillandsia Wall for NIKE
Drawing inspiration from nature’s enchanting qualities and the diverse forms and colors of Tillandsia plants, this vertical garden transformed the space into a vibrant, living artwork.
The Tillandsia wall spans 80 square meters and features over 19,000 plants from 21 species. With their unique ability to thrive without soil, these air plants create dynamic and sustainable forms that add a burst of color and texture to the environment. The wall serves as a stunning visual element and brings several benefits to the indoor setting.
Benefits of the Tillandsia wall in an indoor environment include:
- Air Purification: Tillandsia plants absorb pollutants and carbon dioxide, releasing fresh oxygen into the air, which enhances indoor air quality.
- Humidity Regulation: These plants can help maintain optimal humidity levels, making the indoor climate more comfortable and reducing the likelihood of respiratory issues.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Tillandsia’s diverse shapes and colors create a visually captivating display that can enhance mood and reduce stress.
- Acoustic Insulation: Vertical gardens can absorb sound, reducing noise levels and creating a more serene atmosphere.
By integrating nature into the design, the Tillandsia wall beautifies the space and promotes a healthier, more pleasant indoor environment.
