If you’re a fan of botanical architecture, this might just be the coolest building ever. Architects Minsuk Cho and Kisu Park of Mass Studies designed this flora-clothed multi-level building to house Belgian fashion designer , South Korea. The building was completed in October 2007 and takes green roofs and living walls to another level, using foliage to cover both the external and internal wall surfaces. We love that it looks as if the building is growing up from underneath the greenery, blurring the lines between plants as ornamentation or structure.
On a site located in an alley near Seoul’s rapidly transforming Gangnam district, the building stands as a green marvel, three floors tall, housing the Ann Demeulemeester shop on the first floor, a restaurant above, and a Multi-Shop in the basement.
There are many reasons to have house plants in your home. Plants can do more than adding a decorative touch to your house, they can also add energy to your room and help you feel less stressed. We should also pay attention to what our ancestors have known for centuries, plants are not just ornaments and at some level we are connected to them so much that on cohabitating with them makes us healthier and less stressed. Studies show that there are at least 6 reasons why you should have plants in your home.
