“…Their planting positions, climbing modes and training systems are summarized in Table 2. The species were selected based on the following criteria: (a) woody growth form; (b) perennial growth habit; (c) natural ability to climb to to reach the tank top; (d) proven track record of vigorous growth in the local humid-tropical climate; and (e) representation of two principal climber attachment modes [41], namely gripping a bare wall surface (veneer or concrete climber greenwall), and grasping a wire-mesh training system (mesh climber greenwall) [42].…”

“…Green walls can be divided into three main types: traditional green facade, where climber plants use the facade material as a support; double-skin green facade or a green curtain, with the aim of creating a double-skin or green curtain separated from the wall; and perimeter flowerpots, where, as a part of the composition of the façade, hanging pots or shrubs are planted around the building to create a green curtain [100][101][102]. Green walls can also be used for low level landscaping of car parks, services and for providing shade.…”

Characterisation of Nature-Based Solutions for the Built Environment

2017

Nature has provided humankind with food, fuel, and shelter throughout evolutionary history. However, in contemporary cities, many natural landscapes have become degraded and replaced with impermeable hard surfaces (e.g., roads, paving, car parks and buildings). The reversal of this trend is dynamic, complex and still in its infancy. There are many facets of urban greening initiatives involving multiple benefits, sensitivities and limitations. The aim of this paper is to develop a characterisation method of nature based solutions for designing and retrofitting in the built environment, and to facilitate knowledge transfer between disciplines and for design optimisation. Based on a review of the literature across disciplines, key characteristics could be organised into four groups: policy and community initiatives, multiple benefits assessment, topology, and design options. Challenges and opportunities for developing a characterisation framework to improve the use of nature based solutions in the built environment are discussed.

“…In addition, for site and soil passive strategy, sustainable building has proper orientation to reduce solar penetration and glare [33,[40][41][42]; located near to mass transit, bicycle and pedestrian-friendly site [4-5, 19, 43]; consideration of seasonal and daily pattern of sun, wind-flow, shade pattern and water [4,32]; sited in sedimentary rock and low noise level site or using soundproofing materials for high noise level site [32]. Furthermore, the sustainable building uses drought resistance grasses and native plants [4][5]32]; specialised paving materials [5,37]; water retaining pavements [39]; green roofs [19,33,41,[44][45]and green walls [41,[46][47]. Sustainable building also maximises the use of daylighting and natural ventilation through Atrium or Atria [5,27,31,42].…”

This study method and analyses valuers' current perception of sustainable design and depreciation issues in Malaysia. The findings present evidence that the eleven factors of sustainable building design paradigms are relevant to commercial property depreciation and obsolescence as agreed by the sample as a whole. Nevertheless, the level of relevancy varied from one factor to another with sustainable HVAC system, sustainable building status and sustainable building system dominate the top three ranking in this study. design and architecture;
