The Green Square Development, a project that epitomizes sustainable urban living, has incorporated a Fytogreen feature green facades on Building B extending over 145m2, enhancing both the southern and northern exteriors with lush vegetation.

Southern Facade: Spanning from levels 2 to 7, the southern facade is adorned with 66 planters. Northern Facade: The northern facade, covering levels 3 to 12, is equipped with 180 planters.

These green facades utilize Tensile Trellis system and Vertical Jakob Wire Ropes, which provides robust support for the plants while allowing them to thrive.  A system known for its durability and minimal visual impact, ensuring that the focus remains on the greenery.

These green facades are not just aesthetically pleasing but also contribute to the building’s energy efficiency, air purification, and biodiversity.

Green Square Development stands as a beacon of modern architecture, where luxury meets eco-conscious design. The integration of green facades is a clear indication of Mirvac’s mission to reimagine urban life, prioritizing sustainability, diversity, and social inclusion.
