Façade greening with stainless steel cable systems – design, technology and ecology in harmony

Manuel Blum

Abstract

Green façades are becoming increasingly important as a design and ecological element in architecture. Stainless steel cable systems offer a durable, flexible and architecturally appealing solution as a climbing aid for various plant species. The presentation highlights the technical and design possibilities of such systems, from planning and dimensioning to the selection of suitable plants.
