Description

Nature's Service is a self-sustaining system made out of clay modules. They provide space and water for urban flora and promote, among other things, the level of biodiversity in the context of the city. The basic shape of each module allows vertical stacking and rainwater collection. Each unit can provide itself with water for up to four weeks. Up to 70% of water can thus be saved compared to conventional watering - a feature that is becoming increasingly relevant for cities with constantly rising temperatures.
