Green Boat: Vertical garden with self-sustaining irrigation system – Universidad de Guadalajara

A green wall or vertical garden is a method that integrates gardening, landscaping, engineering and architecture, covering the walls with lightweight and durable materials without affecting the main structure, but protecting it from external factors such as humidity and temperature. The green wall improves the air quality of the university campus, producing more oxygen and increasing the surface area with a sink effect through sustainable vertical gardens. Moreover, it isolates noise and generates a cooler and more aesthetic space for students to relax and helps control the stress of daily life. Unlike traditional gardens, the green wall uses optimized water resource.
