Squares and traffic islands
The squares, traffic islands and public plazas range covers planting and design solutions for the modern city, meant to create public spaces that are pleasant, inviting and architecturally present. The containers and elements suit squares, streets, traffic islands, promenades and paved public plazas, with sizes, colours and finishes adapted to the character of the project and the design language of its surroundings. We accompany the planning process and match the right solutions to the public space, combining function, high durability and a greener, more colourful and more precise street experience.
In many urban projects today, especially paved plazas, roofs above car parks, retail areas and complex urban infrastructure, planting directly in the ground is not possible. In these cases large above-ground planters make significant planting, trees and shade possible even where the infrastructure sets limits. Their large planting volumes allow roots and plants to develop healthily over time, while keeping design flexibility and a full fit to site conditions.
The solutions also suit projects above urban rail infrastructure, underground car parks and areas with limits on load or soil depth, turning hard, paved spaces into greener, shadier places that are more pleasant to spend time in. With the right planning of containers, plants and trees, they make a real contribution to urban quality of life, reduce heat load and create community meeting points within the city.
