A green roof or living roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproof membrane. It may also include additional layers such as a root barrier and drainage and irrigation systems.
There are many benefits of installing a green roof. A green roof provides a rainwater buffer, purifies the air, reduces the ambient temperature, regulates the indoor temperature, saves energy and encourages biodiversity in the city. Green roofs can have an insulating effect and help buildings stay cool in the summer or warm in the winter which would reduce the need of air conditioning/heating and reduce energy consumption.
By installing green roofs, ecospaces aims to create a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly urban environment. The incorporation of solar panels allows for the production of clean and renewable energy, reducing reliance on traditional energy sources. Overall, ecospaces is dedicated to creating a greener and more sustainable future for urban areas.
