I have seen his work all over dezeen and other arch/design blogs. I know there is a lot of skepticism about the whole “put a tree on it” skyscraper in regards to the net environmental benefit. I personally like the aesthetic and have seen some really fantastic implementations of the concept, but I’ll have to look further into how much the the addition of green space/trees really effects the overall environmental impact of a skyscraper. I have questions about its overall effectiveness if concrete and traditional construction methods were used. How would it compare to the cross laminated timber skyscrapers that are being constructed More and more often at greater heights?

Again I haven’t done a deep dive into the data or anything. I’m sure someone has lol.

But I’m 100% for the greening of our cities for the aesthetic, as well as air quality and psychological benefits. Just some hot take thoughts and questions lol.
