• Symbiotic Green Wall – An eco-friendly construction site divider

    Construction sites are generally quite noisy and there is dust, and dirty everywhere. Moreover there is also a lot of ground water that is wasted mindlessly. Designed by Kooho Jung & Hayeon Kelly Choi, the Symbiotic Green Wall is a beautifully crafted dual wall system that absorbs the heat and noise generated by the construction site. The space between the two layers acts as water purification-cum-rain water harvesting system. Hence it not only collects and purifies rain water but also takes care of residual waste water from the construction site.


    The inner wall has sensors and sprinklers to intimate the workers about the levels of noise and pollution in the actual construction site. The outer wall has similar indicators keeping the passers-by updated with the progress and pollution status of actual construction. It also has neon lights, horizontal and vertical green spots for plants and grass, over head shades and seating points, making the wall more inviting than a mere dividing wall
