Constructable biodiversity
Two towers, one vision: the restoration of urban biodiversity. Wonderwoods gives Utrecht a vertical forest, a new urban ecosystem. The greenery on the towers improves air quality and increases biodiversity.
The towers are different as well as related. INBO worked closely with Stefano Boeri Architetti as co-architect and engineer to realize the taller, green residential tower. MVSA designed the lower office tower.
Integrating nature in a design affects the use of materials, construction sequence and maintenance of the entire building. We have extensive experience in this respect.
Together with all design and construction parties, we created conditions in which the greenery flourishes and the façade pollutes as little as possible.
We went all the way
A nice place
