GREEN WALL DESIGN INTENT

“[The client] wanted something that wasn’t going to be an ongoing maintenance issue.” Tom Mazcko of Alliance Architecture detailed how a Preserved Moss Wall became the final design choice for this four story stairwell.

They needed a green element as well as an acoustical component that could also fit within the limited depth of wall space. A preserved Moss Wall fit the design and budget.

GREEN WALL DESIGN

This preserved Moss Wall is 4 stories tall that transitions to an elevated plynth at the bottom. The design uses a combo of Flat Moss and Pole Moss. The extended plynth at the bottom is embellished with artificial plantings.
