A covering made of plants for an irrigation system that is self-sufficient and connected.
Because of the urban heat island effect, cities are more likely to be hit by extreme weather, and by the end of the century, they will have to deal with a rise in temperature. Cities need to get ready for the big problems of the 21st century, like climate change, air pollution, and growing cities. To solve this problem, URBAN CANOPEE makes structures that can stand on their own, are covered with plants, and have their own irrigation systems. The base of the structure, which can be moved easily, is only 1 m2, but it can hold up to 50 m2 of plants. This solution’s oasis of coolness is meant to make up for heat islands, cut down on air pollution, restore urban biodiversity, and improve the quality of life for city residents.
