green wall

This project comes directly from GLT and the Equinox Fitness Center on 10th Ave between 17 and 18th in NYC. This wall is roughly 650 square feet of our standard 2'x2'x3" depth panels. Planted with a variety of low light tolerant plants the arrangement allows for a variety of textures and colors. The red was an excellent contrast to the custom metal rail and mahogany stairs. Throughout the wall there are roughly 3800 plants. The upper and lower portions of the wall will be flanked by water features making this high class club more like a spa setting then a stretching area. A combination of water and live plants is a very relaxing way to wind down.

In the GLT news room things are heating up at two extremes of the globe. The green wall is finding popularity in Anchorage Alaska as indoor displays and upright gardens, great way to bring vegetation indoors! And in the South GLT has partnered with Mark Aston and the ICS Group (Tel: 310-377-7800) to incorporate GLT's Green Roof and Green Wall Technologies in Barbados and surrounding islands. In "Entertainment News", I always wanted to say that, Urban Farming (LA) has officially announced partnerships with both GLT and Warner Brothers to incorporate the green wall into urban areas creating editable crop production. GLT is also a proud sponsor of the Go Green Expo NY (www.gogreenexpo.com)featuring green technologies through out the show and you can expect to see the first commissioned custom art work by Susan Rowley to be on display. The commissioned piece will include a 6' one of a kind sculpture incorporating the GLT Green Wall. The owner of the piece has asked to remain anonymous due to their "A" list popularity.

It has been a very busy December for us....first I am sorry for not saying high to our new friends that added us ....welcome and thank you! feel free to contact me anytime...... This latest project was a collaborative idea by Architect Robin Elmslie Olser (reosler@eoarch.com / www.eoarch.com). Thank you Robin for thinking outside the box! We incorporated roughly a 1900 +/- square foot soil based green wall in our standard 2'x2'x3" 100% recyclable modules. The panels were pre-grown off site and then brought to the project for installation. The result was a product that is 90% mature allowing for instant benefits and immediate aesthetics. In fact it was not 30 seconds after we removed the caution tape people were walking right up to it.......The green wall is facing a South South East elevation and will absorb the UV rays keeping the building cooler, during the 110 degree days, by preventing heat loss and heat gain. The primary source of irrigation is natural rainwater with an installed irrigation system to supplement during periods of drought. The recycled copper catch basin at the bottom will corral any excess water to be used in the adjacent landscaping along the public areas.

Look for some updated Deco-Walls later this weekend.....our manufacturing dept. has been very creative!

This is not your common Chia Pet....this is a mini version BKA our Table Top Green Wall. It has a standard 4" x 6" x 3" cell but it has a built in watering system and it is manufactured from stainless steel. Because of the ability to customize it we can make a variety of finishes including copper, brass, paint etc....We can also laser engrave as seen below. Great gift idea or for someone who has limited space. It has been very succesful growing herbs and editable vegetables....see our garden wall (Official Supporter of UrbanFarming.org) below and to the right.

The pic above is a Deco Piece created specifically for Green Living Technologies by Susan Ferrari- Rowley.

More Deco Table Tops will be released in the next few months, through GLT Susan also does one of a kind signature pieces using the GLT Green Wall....

Anything is possible, your only limited to your imagination......
