Living Walls in Northern Climes….

[Kris Lucius]

Can anyone share any experience with gsky or similar green wall panel systems in climates where soil freezing is a concern?  We’ve experience building green walls in sub-tropic areas and on interiors, but I have a client who very much wants one on a south facing interior in Massachusetts.  I feel like I’ve seen some in NYC on retail facades, but it may have just been a temporary thing. I will of course talk to the sales reps, but would love a second opinion.

that should be, “south facing FACADE in Massachusetts”

Kris,

There is the Pure Yoga wall project in NYC, but depending on where in MA your project is, conditions will be harsher. And a South facing wall may be the most challenging (I’d prefer the wall to freeze and stay frozen rather than heat and cool daily)
