Easy Being Green

Valcucine Green Wall

When I was a young Architect I remember asking a senior partner in the large firm where I worked how he was going to integrate his design into the landscape.  His response was “When I am done designing I’ll send it over to (name brand landscape firm) and they will stick some growies on it”.  While he was kidding me, that expression embodied more than a little truth about how Architects, Engineers and Landscape Architects worked together back before integrated green design became popular.

I think the “green wall” by Valcucine shown above is a  tongue-in-cheek commentary on green design.  If they were serious they would have used something other than the WalMart pots for the plants.
