How to design responsive architecture
PREACH! YES THIS IS EPIC
Birds are gonna love those trees, great views.
I bet it would be beautiful to see a bunch of different species flying around your work or apartment..

Honestly this is one of the best trends to have taken place for those who can afford the upkeep cost. Hopefully we'll see more innovation in this direction.
You mean best treends.
CAN Someone lives in this building . Because in a Night time
this buildings really looks horror
or plants leave Carbon - die- oxide
But its really tremendous buildings.

@@missqueen2226 people used to live in the nature and forests as other animals that lives on the trees. the amount of carbon dioxide at night is very small, the air in the atmosphere is made up of approximately 78 percent nitrogen and 21 percent oxygen. PS: breathing pure oxygen is dangerous and deadly.
Man, the quality of content on this channel is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Note to self:
If I ever decided to build a Studio, make sure it has lots of trees and plants on it to save up on Air Condition
Still got to factor in the cost of mowing your roof though
How many trees do you have and in what square footage, if you don’t mind sharing?

JJ. Whatever you are trying to say, "innervate" is not the word you want for it!
Insulation is the only thing that will reduce costs and there is almost none in Singapore
How did I miss this video for two years?? THIS IS MY FAVORITE TYPE OF ARCHITECTURE!
While I'm all for adding greenery to buildings, I really dont think trees are the best way to go, both in terms of maintenance and environmental impact. Bushes/shrubs, grasses, and wildflowers would imo be a far better choice. They dont usually require deep root systems and correspondingly deep/heavy soil, and they capture about the same amount of carbon as trees while offering a much easier way to harvest and sequester that carbon. Wildflowers can also help maintain and revitalize critically important bee populations. If you want to have some trees on the roof to make a rooftop park? Sure, why not. But for terraces and balconies? Stick to the shrubbery.
There's no much difference (in terms of your stated criteria) between a bush/shrub and a dwarf tree. For example, a Japanese maple (technically a tree) can be more compact than an upright Rosemarinus officinalis (a shrub that many grow on window sills as a herb). I suspect that the botanist has increasingly a job next to the architect, in advising the best specimens for the given conditions. I know for a fact they did take some expert arboriculture advise at Bosco Verticale, Milan, particularly with regard to soil composition as well as trees / shrubs specimens.
I see a new emerging profession, the archi-botanist, who knows what to plant where in what soils on what buildings.
Joe wins.
@Donald Kasper
Sustainability refers to line graphs. For example, if fishing activity will eventually drop their population to 0 over time, then those fishing practices are unsustainable.
Our population growth rate is also unsustainable, because it will have to plataeu. It's impossible to keep it growing, ad infinitum.
So, if a logging company has a system that plants, grows and cuts trees in a cycle, and replenishes the soil, it's sustainable. The supply doesn't go down or up. It remains constant.
The only thing I cant believe about this whole post chain is well, no one has said it...
"Get me a shrubbery! Ni!"
Trees also require more maintenance. Branches may fall off and kill ppl on the street etc.
The residential buildings in Milan and the Oasia Hotel look really nice
My dream job is to work for an architectural engineering firm that designs buildings like these.
Make that dream a REALITY!! It’s an incredible industry to work in - what you do shapes our world!
Believe me I am trying. Getting my civil engineering degree soon and am hoping to land a job where I can do work like this.
Mine too.😇
That’s wonderful, I hope you change the world for the better, man!
Gavin Graham watch Neville Gooddard on RUclips and learn to “imagine” your dreams come true....the kingdom of heaven IS within! My Dreams are coming true. Would love to see your dreams come true too. You will be Divinely Guided.
Im a Landscape Architect, and im really excited to see this design approach growing in the future
These going green is beautiful and it's a balm for the soul 🙏🏾🙌🏾

One could call this a growing trend.

I guess the Industreeal side of the world is taking a liking to the idea of green living
@@dirtyharry5096 They're branching out.
I saw the green towers in Milan in 2019! Amazing! All skyscrapers should have trees like this!
Great Video! In the Future most cities will incorporate green areas and ideas like this!
We Love this channel!
Great video!
There will be no cities in the future, just wasteland.
Not if Republicans and other Conservatives and Fascists have their say.
@@Helloverlord talk about the apocalypse,its not gonna happen in a million years,WW3? We can rebuild the world from its crumbled state due to our technology improving
These plant buildings are sooooo beautiful! And good for the planet too!
Everyone who lives in an apartment building can contribute to the effort, too, by growing potted plants on their balconies. Plus, all the pretty flowers and foliage will make you feel good too. :)
That Sumitomo Forestry HQ looks fantastic. I hope they build it.
the dedication to research and the simplicity with which you guys explain your findings is absolutely fantastic. Each video is like a miniature essay, this is definitely one of the best channels on RUclips
In ancient and medieval India, cities and forests were intertwined. Many foreing visitors didn't know whether it was a city or a forest. It is written in their travel logs. Same things happened in South East Asia as well. We should turn the world green like that. For our children and their children....
If you look at many native american societies as well as native Indonesian societies you see al ot of integration between civilization and natural habitat as well. So many ancient societies had a deep understanding of how to live with nature and benefit from it ina symbiotic way. We have much to learn from these lost civilizations.
Mirrorwarrior
@@claysmith8840 makes you wonder. If ancient times did this and it was the norm, where did we go wrong? Where did we decide to eat up the environment, but not give anything in return? When did we become so selfish in our journey in advancement? We cannot exist or develop without a healthy planet or environment. Imagine how much cooler the urban areas would be if this became the norm. How much lower carbon pollution would be. How slower global warming would become. Such hopeful thinking but little effort or chances of it becoming reality. It's depressing really
Even the Benin earthworks in West Africa were built to unite man with nature.

First world country privilege :)
I've been to le bosco verticale in milan and it is absulutely stunning
also you don't see it in the video but there's a really nice park next to it now and even more amazing buildings
This is how buildings should look like
WE AGREE!! 👍👍
Yeah but what about the fact that roots and the moisture held in the soil will damage the concrete?
@@budmeister I'm pretty sure architects and botanists know what theyre doing
@@wearewatchingyouhumans6956 no, they most certainly will break any nice feel a city may of had in the past, we don't need that much damn foliage on every single building..it is dystopian and uncomfortable, we need a more subtle way of doing this but not where beings look alien and we just cover every building in neon green foliage and plants..
No just some.
I was just binge watching videos about this topic a few days ago and now one of my favorite channels makes a video going in depth about “Forest Buildings” Thank you 💚
TayToria would you mind sharing some interesting videos you stumbled upon?
These actually look so cool! You could make a building with so many trees that it just blending in and camouflaged into nature.
Videos like this, is what gives me hope in the future.
Likings of humans has gone full circle from Natural to Concrete and now concrete to natural. Thank you enriching our lives with your futuristic information. 🙏
Trees are good. But I think in a building especially residentials they should incorporate vegetable garden. Can you imagine the free food in your window? Just thinking.
Ohhh really great
😊
I don't see why one wouldn't mix, per request to maintenance, to replace some shrubs with tomato trees, or flowers with herbs.
I have one in my balcony (^^)
Vegetables don't grow every other day, you would get maybe a few vegetables per year max.
Hong Kong is the real place when you say “when trees meet buildings”.
It’s downtown jungle over there.
So badass
Bolbi · I would say Singapore 🇸🇬 they’re doing great with sustainable architecture & city planing in my opinion it’s more impressive than Hong Kong 🇭🇰 or any other modern city 🌃
Been living in HK for a while. moved out of the city.. it's way to crowded.
I liked Hong Kong, especially from the top of the tramway at night, but I was always worried one of those air conditioners would fall on my head, lol.
Ryan Blais ouch! well now I’ll have the same worry too thank you I guess 😂😰💔
🤔🤔
More of this in every city. I think with all of their initiatives (and money!) Singapore is really leading the way.
the Bosco Verticale is not only a crucial achievement in green architecture, it's also a beautiful sight to see when you walk around Porta Garibaldi. They've become an icon to the Milanese skyline.
always look forward to your content, offering a glimpse into current and future trends in the construction industry
How did I miss this video for two years?? THIS IS MY FAVORITE TYPE OF ARCHITECTURE!
I’m 3 days late. But, another fantastic video.
I said it before, I’ll say it again.
This channel just keeps getting better and better.
Bosco Verticale in Milan Italy is F***ing BEAUTIFUL. 2,000 bushes, and 1,000 trees it said on the brochure. Felt like being in a tree hause!
Elected as the world most beautiful skyscrapers
Amazing video, as per usual, thank you! You guys should make a ranking of cities who best incorporate trees into their urban environment.
Thank you so much!!! That's a great idea!
What a great video! I love the concept of skyscrappers being closer with nature
TominotopiA BU
Please do more of green buildings I am an environmentalist an it make me proud that more people are paying attention to these masterpieces 🤩🤩😊😭😢💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
I live in one of the fastest-growing counties in the US. It seems like builders are bound and determined to replace as much greenspace as possible with concrete as soon as they possibly can. It's very depressing.
It happens everywhere and I just don't get it. My Aunt's garden in Ireland used to be full of evergreen trees, in the front and back, big grass verges and many smaller trees. One day I visited for the first time in years and every inch was concrete. It looked awful. I have no idea how or why this appeals to anyone.
cost of maintenance, usually. in some places it makes sense so as to save water in drought heavy areas, but usually its about money :(
one lil factor i wonder though? cause i have a family member who had spent $700/year to keep a big old magnolia tree *alive*, but it was just planted in the wrong environment and kept trying to die so she let it (it was replaced by new native tree dont worry :)). this has me wonder, how often is it that humans just have poor planning and keep putting the wrong plants in the wrong climates? not the architects here ofc, bosses oughta call these guys before building green spaces in the first place lbr
Country in the us? I think u mean city. Also this is happening in India too!! Industrial development at the cost of nature.
@@idkatthispoint-s9s He said county, like a district, not country. It confused me too, for a moment!
Just need a few plastic plants....
THE BUILDINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT !!
I hope it will be common for all new buildings. It looks great and has a good affect on people living there.
Thanks for this. Very interesting.
You're welcome!
I would like to add to this wonderful video a building that was finished in 1994 called Espai Verd in Valencia by Antonio Cortés Ferrando. The building is a masterpiece regarding the integration of greenery, water, and homes! I remember growing up and always looking at it in awe as I passed by it with the car.
Best B1M video so far. Excellent!
WOW - thank you!!!
I love this channel! It’s so great to watch, and as an aspiring architect, I would love to design something like this. It’s actually why I want to be an architect. To change things for the better. To give everybody a great, sustainable, beautiful place to live in, work in, learn in. I’m only in year 6, and I intend to get great marks, and study as hard as I can. Thank you, B1M, for helping me in your own way. People say climate change will destroy us. I, and everyone else, should say no to that, and work to change things for the better. I hope to get into a prestigious architecture school someday. Thank you again, for giving me the ideas that will help my future.
I have been to Oasia Hotel Downtown in Singapore twice and it's gorgeous!
Wow - did you stay there??
Yes! Two times so far! I go to Singapore about once a year in January or February, I'm head of operations of Singapore based company in Croatia. I used to stay at Amara Hotel, literally across the street and watched it being built. I think it was opened in spring of 2016, so in January 2016 was done but without greenery. 2017 was first time I stayed there because I loved how it looked. And it's a 4 star hotel, so prices are reasonable for Singapore. And it's in a great part of town. There are two malls within 200 m of a hotel, famous Marina Bay Sands Hotel and Gardens by the Bay are less 5 km away and countless malls, shops and restaurants in between.
I wanna go. It would be a gift just to walk around in there and get a dinner at one of the restaurants or swim at the pool.
Iquey Singapore is fantastic! Sadly, I was there during the East Asian Haze years back, but hey, the food was good and I had fun.
Every building should be like this.
Amazing Videos. Green buildings are the future!
Definitely NOT for Earth Hating, jealous morons though....
This is a great idea. When I lived in the Pacific Northwest just south of Seattle 40 years ago, that was a great concept of city planners was to leave as many trees as possible.
That was the coolest thing ive ever seen. I thought I had this idea years ago and there are already several! I want to visit and then live in and then develop some :D
Greenspace has such an impact, reducing urban temperatures, passive solar shading, wildlife corridors, and also the psychological benefits for us (reducing stress, etc). Great it's becoming a wider trend. Keep it coming! Thanks for a great video.
And I can't even get my landlord to plant flowers out front in the spring.
I think its integrating little bits of sustainability in to everything we build that will improve our coexistence over time with our home
Treescrapers
having the courage to design this greenery into the building design takes a modern and sensitive approach to the environment
Loove this direction for construction, hopefully it takes off in the future. Great video
This is the skyscraper I like to imagine when I think of the future, not the black/white tall slender ones. Great stuff!
Wonder what will happen to structural integrity when a building constantly gains weight and expands over time?
IMHO this is the best comment under this video. 👍
the buildings are designed with this in mind, and they are pruned back as well.
I love this article when trees meet tall buildings these buildings are absolutely beautiful yes there is maintenance to them but in the long run are quite healthy to be around. And they're quite beautiful.
Tell you one thing... that pruner has balls of steel!
No, no. Those are just cables of steel.
I was totally enamored by the Tree Towers in Milan, during a business trip in 2015. They are even more beautiful ini this video after several more years of growth. Thank you for sharing this video so that I could learn more, and the rest of the world could also appreciate a wonderful set of buildings. Should I ever find myself taking residence in Milan...these would be at the top of my list for home options.
Milan has been the first and will always be the best city in the world❤️
Long as u pullin them weeds n the roots don't compromise the building overtime this is awesome
I love this idea but what happens when the roots inevitably reach the edges of the planters? We can already see the effects of long term tree growth on sidewalks and the edges of roads. I wonder how much additional maintenance is needed to address those issues. Plus regular maintenance... How is all of that managed? What's the cost of the employees and specialty management necessary to maintain the look(trimming, watering, removing dead plants, etc)?. Certainly an expense for the building owner but great source of new specialty jobs that are probably better economically than the usual window washers. Could be a great new job source and paid for partially by the greater efficiencies in temperature management inside the structures.
Evan Gonzalez The roots grow proportionally to the trees branches, as long as you trim the trees there would be no problem with the roots outgrowing the planters or lifting the sidewalk.
It's not.....this is just another Pie in the Sky idea that will be very expensive...and have very little Impact on CO2....perfect for any Democrat run City...in 20 years they will be saying, "Well we didn't know...but we meant well...now Vote for us again Comrades
@@harrykuheim6107 Did you type that from a tried and tested, failure-proof mountain cave that stood the test of time?
Vertical farming and tree covered buildings, both good bed fellows
I use to think about flower pots falling over ur head. Now imagine a tree.
In Aberdeen in the UK there is a new exhibition centre being built. It has a green roof and I think it is great for the city. I go there a lot to visit my mother
Incorporating greenery in architecture is so beautiful and desirable but it is also a huge problem long term because of the continual moisture damage. Cracks, erosion and leaks, rotting etc. There has to be a way to overcome it but it will not be cheap or easy. Imagine if each of these green spaces were instead swimming pools and the problem will be more apparent as water always seeks the lowest point. These large spaces need to be sealed and they will not be sealed as one piece. And over time materials erode and compress etc. On a skyscraper with massive amounts of greenery included you might need to worry about structural damage similar to what caused that condo collapse in Florida. I would like to see a video of how they would make these buildings truly water tight and safe long term.
I'm sooo happy more people are doing this 😻🌲
I saw Bosco Verticale everyday while going to work. It's beautiful to see, really, but it's also terribly expensive.
A 2 room apartment can cost more than a million euro. No kidding
And what about mosquitooos and insects 😆
The problem is that it's just one building in Milan. So you're not only paying for the privilege of living in "that green building", but also for the privilege of living in a skyscraper in Milan, since most skyscrapers in Italy are used for commercial purposes, not residential.
We really need this concept, its refreshing. It can also save our mother planet...
1:17 rare footage of the imperial base on Endor itself!
*'starwar noises'*
I love these buildings, they are so beautiful. There are drawbacks to buildings like this, but the inspiration they provide and emotions they provoke should not be underestimated. It's stuff like this that makes me happy and hopeful for the future. I want to see our homes and cities quite literally become more green. I live in a community in northern Canada where we get a lot of snow for most of the year. It's easy to get depressed during the winter. If our homes and buildings had more greenery built within them it would help offset this winter depression people get here.
I love seeing it but I also thought of the fire threat. We are currently having forrest fires already. These trees are near people in sunny places. That has to be a fire threat.
Yes, fire safety and engineering must of course be considered. We do touch on this in the video.
This is truly amazing video. I remember attending a seminar 10 years ago at Washington University- St.Louis about these very projects. Also discussed were concepts of vegetable production inside buildings. Vertical farms which would reduce amount of land needs for farms.
Great topic! Awesome video as always!
Thank you!! And thanks for always tuning in!
6:52 - one of the most beautiful buildings I saw during my trip to Milan...
Oh my God I want to live in that thumbnail's visual
It could be so beautiful with flowers around the buildings, can you imagine they will be covered with blossom at the same time? Big opened flowers or a lot of small and greenery as well - will look like a farytile)))
nice, now we need to find more efficient ways to do it so it can become popular. the little art project ones are cute and all, but theyre very inefficient.
m8 they aint "little art cute projects" at all by your friendly neighbourhood artists, these are projects with massive budgets by teams of people with huge developers who can afford. Designing these "green" buildings require a lot of planning and financing in order for these designs to be built. IT IS popular especially in the architecture industry but these designs are naturally expensive to build due to the nature of using plants, which is why many developers in the world do not adopt such designs for their buildings unless the country that the building is in incentivizes low environmental impact for its buildings then developers would be more willing to allow architects to use these designs. Building trends don't work the same as fashion trends!
@@Justyn_Lim_ yea its funny how worthless 'professionals' can be sometimes tbh
ruclips.net/video/vLS7qrum-jw/видео.html.
I am from a developing country which has in he past 20 years seen an increase in building construction. Its unfortunate that most of these buildings are not tending towards green as it should. I hope that estate constructions would have in mind to plant more trees and have high risers such as these. Good job guys.
it makes me think about indoor air quality issues because of moisture from irrigation.
the irrigation is outside the living space though?
This really needs to be more looked into it sounds like the best idea I've ever heard
Damn, you didnt mention Sydneys One Central Park Building
I looked it up and it looks amazing!
And wonder about that square structure that seems to levitate between the two towers...
It is Heliostat, which is "A device that includes a plane mirror which turns so as to keep reflecting sunlight toward a predetermined target, compensating for the sun's apparent motions in the sky."
Pretty cool!
What a maintenance nightmare. I used to manage housing schemes and we had far more complaints that any trees we planted were stopping daylight getting to apartments and leaves and roots blocking the drainage.
I put plants in my room, it makes my room look a little more habitable and friendly.
I did too
It is more pleasant to be surrounding by greenary and plants, it is our instinct to get close to nature.
👍Love it. I hope more of these living structures can be built. 💞
Now this I love..... more buildings in the world should be like this!
Best video so far :)
Wow, thank you!!
We also made rooftop greening of Japanese international airport gardens and urban buildings. But the work of this video is very wonderful! I would like to share with many people by all means.
I had no idea they been doing trees on building way back in the Babylon ages I thought they where going to do it year of the 2020s learn something new.
I'm currently looking into architecture and I'm trying to design a building out if wood. I love this

2:34 That's Paley Park in Manhattan. The famous Stork Club used to be located at that location. With its waterfall, Paley Park is so relaxing, not to mention unexpected, nestled as it is amongst the tall buildings of Midtown.
Oh make a video about the plans of the new Innovation District in Miami please!
Tree is our best friend.
They will never harm us.
They are perfect for us.
What's the highest up you could have plants on top of a building? I would figure that there has to be a point where the wind would be too much or something that would prohibit good plant growth.
Nexxarian there’s a lot of trees that live at altitudes higher than any buildings we’ve built right now.
Yes but are they different kinds of trees that have adapted to live at those elevations? I'm talking more of like common trees or plants, whatever grows around the city.
Nexxarian ahh I see, my bad
@@Nexxarian
I'd say it isn't the wind, it is the climate (primarily, the cold, and moisture) that defines how high (elevation) the trees can grow and which tree species. Regarding the individual climate conditions, there are so many variables there, that I'll have to generalize heavily.
• Good roots usually can enable the tree to withstand most winds, even ones that are "extreme" in human terms.
• The maximum elevation at which the trees (conifers - pine trees) can comfortably grow in European climates are (approximately): 1000-2500 meters (3300-8200 ft), which is way above modern super-construction achievements. Leafy trees usually are at, (very) roughly, half that elevation.
• Certain shrubs can grow even higher, and under city conditions can grow fairly large, but, in general, they lack the aesthetic beauty of trees.
If my explanation is a bit hard to follow try looking up _tree line_ (timber line) for specific regions.
I love trees and plants.
instead of creating single tree houses , Berlin is making the whole city green :P
