Designer Living Walls and Topiary
Gas Design came up with a unique look for their client: Louis Vuitton. Gregory Polletta and Sung Jang designed the project to show how Louis Vuitton’s building is “alive” and so people could experience that “aliveness” every day they own something from Louis Vuitton. Behind the topiaries are nets of water and fertilizer that feed the plants and a gardener is dispatched every so often to trim the topiaries. Here’s a couple different pictures of the same building with different topiary/living wall looks:

Topiade living wall

Living wall with lights

Patterned living wall

Vertical garden
The topiade is a lay-over facade structure that’s part topiary design, part living wall design. They strove to renew an existing Louis Vuitton building without a huge construction undertaking. The end result is a great-looking design that is able to be changed frequently through a modular topiary system.
