- the herzog and de meuron version in NY ran out of money, this one looks greener.robotron3k
- love the eco / vertical gardens even better. There's one in city that is amazing in person ... makes other buildings look dated.inteliboy

- This is certainly the way forward. I'm also very keen to see all building renders be solar panels.HAYZ1LLLA
- ^ Solar panels are limited in their application, especially in built-up environments. Go below a certain height and they are useless.face_melter
- Also, the glare is unmanageable. PV cells incorporated into glass is the way forward.face_melter
- And as much as developers like to appear 'green', show them the cost of a building covers in cells and they would shit themselves and tell you to git tae fuck.face_melter
- I'll admit I'm a bit ignorant but as I'm speaking about my hopes, surely there are matt solar panels in development.HAYZ1LLLA
- Oh aye, to have a cheap, non-obstructive method is the dream. But. Now we have BREEAM considerations - buildings must have X% of natural light.face_melter
- So you can't have anything which covers windows that obstructs sunlight - hence photo-voltaics embedded in glass as a two-in-one power/solar shading option.face_melter
