Opening Green Cloud Garden in Allariz International Gardens Festival

The Green Cloud Garden in Allariz is opened. This year theme of the festival is Future Gardens. With the pressure for space in most urban settings this project wants to explore future possibilities for green in urban spaces. More green space within cities can improve the urban environment in many different ways: esthetically and environmentally as well as socially and economically. By creating suspended gardens, green layers can be applied to new levels, without interfering with the ground space. The green cloud garden will consist of hanging plants, planted in moss balls. The plants used in this garden are a selection from medical plants, traditionally used in Galicia. Bobbin lace making is a traditional Galician arts and craft technique. This technique is used in the garden and provides a structure of an unsymmetrical string pattern. The festival is open until October 2016 at Allariz, Galiz, Spain. 20-05-2016
