DAM, Frankfurt, 01. 23. – 07. 11.
Text: Bálint Botzheim
The exhibition in DAM Frankfurt addresses the prejudices towards and the arguments in favor of greening the outer shells of buildings and goes beyond merely presenting scientific findings to provide practically oriented tips on greening existing buildings or new builds. It is intended as a call to action and an engine for change – and aims to facilitate an exchange between the results of technical research, design, horticulture and users. Lots of innovative techniques are high-tech in nature, yet there are just as many applications proving that use of the appropriate means and methods in a more low-tech way can achieve equally effective results.
