Italian architect Stefano Boeri<\/strong> has designed a new residential complex in Milan that redefines the meaning of \u201csustainable housing,\u201d and is sure to pique\u00a0the interest of developers and eco-enthusiasts alike.<\/p>\n

\"1_bosco-verticale_FEAT\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After five years of construction, his earth-friendly condominium concept called Bosco Verticale<\/strong> (which means \u201cvertical forest\u201d) has officially opened its doors in the city\u2019s up-and-coming Porta Nuova district.<\/p>\n

\"2_bosco-verticale_view<\/a><\/p>\n

Two visually striking and landscaped towers comprise Bosco Verticale, with one standing at 112 meters (over 365 feet), and the other reaching 80 meters (about 260 feet). Together, they house a combined 113 apartments\u2014all of which offer extensive city views.<\/p>\n

\"4_bosco-verticale_view<\/a><\/p>\n

The hallmark of Bosco Verticale is, of course, the vegetation integrated into its buildings, which includes a total of 780 planted trees, and a number of shrubs and plants, spanning 1,000 different species.<\/p>\n

\"5_bosco-verticale_greywater<\/a><\/p>\n

Each apartment has its own private garden that protects the interior living quarters, as the leaves filter sunlight and help reduce noise and air pollution.<\/p>\n

Boeri told Design Boom<\/a>\u00a0he sought to increase the site\u2019s biodiversity and bring a more \u201cnatural sphere\u201d to an area devoid of much greenery. He and fellow designers Gianandrea Barreca<\/strong> and Giovanni La Varra<\/strong> met with horticulturalists and botanists to devise and execute a plan that would bring this idea to life.<\/p>\n

However, there is no need for \u201call hands on deck\u201d to maintain the extensive flora. The lush greenery residing on each of the staggered, concrete balconies is watered through a self-replenishing irrigation process, as greywater (or wastewater) is recycled on-site.<\/p>\n

\"8_bosco-verticale_staggered<\/a><\/p>\n

Photovoltaic panels located at roof level convert sunlight to electricity, further contributing to the skyscrapers\u2019 self-sufficiency.<\/p>\n

Boeri told reporters<\/a> that Bosco Verticale is an architectural and botanical experiment, and that he intends to closely monitor its continuing impact on the surrounding environment.<\/p>\n
