Photograph by Bo-Kyung in 2007I took a picture of plants on the wall in Paris in 2007 but I recently found that it is the vertical garden which comprises 15,000 plants and 150 different species by Patrick Blanc, a resident scientist, has been creating vertical gardens for nearly 10 years. The building is located at the Musée du Quai Branly, between the Pont d'Alma and the Eiffel Tower.
It was very interesting and the fact that I was even attracted by the building to take a picture even though I did not know what it is exactly and how it is famous either. Plants on the wall of a building is very close to have nature into our life and I do not think I can even compare that sort of idea with just having flower or trees on pots in indoor space. The vertical garden looks like a huge organic space where people and plants live together and a special architecture to create an indoor space for human life and surface of a building for living of plants through the medium of a building.
It is a unique method to create a space for living both of people and plants so I hope we can see gardens on buildings not only for looking good but also making great organic space in the future.
