Periphyton Roofs: Nature’s Green Roof Revolution

Unmatched Building Envelope Performance

Imagine a roof that not only provides shelter but also contributes to a healthier ecosystem. Periphyton roofs are a revolutionary approach to green roofing that promote the natural growth of periphyton, a community of microorganisms that thrive in aquatic environments. These living roofs offer energy efficiency through heat shedding and income from nutrient trading credits. Let us guide you into the world of periphyton roofs, where architecture meets ecology to create sustainable living buildings.

Focusing on the future

Floating Neighborhoods: Cities of Tomorrow, Today

Design ahead of its time

As urbanization accelerates, the demand for space in our cities grows ever more pressing. Floating neighborhoods represent a visionary solution to this challenge. These innovative communities are built on water bodies, combining urban living with a deep respect for the environment. Our exploration of floating neighborhoods delves into their remarkable sustainability features, from advanced waste management systems to energy-efficient designs, creating a blueprint for cities of the future both resilient and environmentally responsible.
