GREEN CITY - SUSTAINABLE URBAN PLANNING

Up to the Middle Age nature was assumed to be

hostile and people living in towns protected
themselves by surrounding walls.
Nowadays we spare no effort to change or improve
urban life by renaturation.
Ongoing changes of environmental, economic and
cultural conditions need new approaches to
functional and ecological urban development and
design.

Subway stations could become more attractive by using

daylight redirection systems, planting vegetation and
creating rain water fed objects.
Vertical vegetation on high rise buildings creates some kind
of artificially grown mammoth trees.
Humans start to live again in naturally determined spaces.
