Someone that has caught my eye in the world of design is Patrick Blanc. His Vertical Garden is a sensational monument to society and eco-friendly design. A way of introducing plants into a city of concrete and bricks, it is a beautiful structure that is created without soil. It is light-weight and can be implemented both inside or outside and is watered to perfection with a self watering system.
I believe that this type of creation is essential for helping towards our planets eco-friendly future. Whether or not you believe in global warning and possible disaster, it is a designers responsibility to try and help preserve the worlds resources if possible. I love this design purely for it's beauty however, I also believe that it's eco-friendly nature and green footprint creates a whole new and wonderful level for such a creation. Although the work is copy-write to Patrick Blanc I am interested in using such a design ethic in my work.
