Jakob introduces an innovative approach to architectural aesthetics with its Green Facade system, a creative integration of climbing plants or cascading groundcovers onto specially designed supporting structures. This sustainable and visually pleasing solution offers a harmonious blend of nature and architecture, transforming walls into vibrant green landscapes.
Understanding Green Facades
Green Facades by Jakob consist of climbing plants categorized into self-supporting varieties, such as root climbers or adhesive-suckers, and those requiring supporting structures, including twining vines, leaf-stem climbers, leaf climbers, or scrambling plants. These facades present a durable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing option, but their successful implementation demands meticulous planning.
