As our civilization developed, nature suffered constantly. Perhaps it is for this reason that today people are increasingly thinking about how to somehow return the spark of its primordiality to the world. Architects and designers from all over the world are trying to add green space even to soulless glass and steel structures like skyscrapers.
1. Urban Tree
A very unusual project of a skyscraper with a height of 360 meters, which provides, among other things, a walking approach to the green zone located at the very top of the structure. There, in addition to numerous greenery, there is a playground, a recreation area, and a restaurant. The rest of the skyscraper is filled with residential and commercial premises. It was designed by MAD Architects and Elenberg Fraser.
2. Green Spine
Created by UNStudio and Cox Architecture. A winding glass tower filled with green spaces as well as flower beds and even fruit trees. The height of the structure is 356.2 meters. At the very top are prestigious office and hotel premises.
3. Lanescraper
Tower designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and Fender Katsalidis Architects. From the side, the skyscraper resembles a structure, which seemed to be composed of separate small glass blocks. The height of the skyscraper is 359 meters. Inside there is a library, restaurants, cafes, hotel, residential and office space.
4. Beulah Propeller City
Skyscraper designed by Coop Himmelb. The height of the structure is 335 meters. At the very top is a penthouse, pool and private garden. Several lower levels of the skyscraper also have large gardens with trees and flowers. By the way, the windows of the skyscraper offer a wonderful view of Melbourne.
5. Stack
Finally, another joint creation, this time by MVRDV and Woods Bagot. The skyscraper is 359 meters high. A significant part of the common spaces in it are landscaped in a very unusual way. The authors of the project used mainly tropical vegetation.
