The Value & The Costs of
Green Walls
The Value
Green walls (also known as living walls or vertical gardens) are a vibrant and eco-friendly option in modern home design, whether as an interior feature or an external facade enhancement. These lush installations can vary from low-maintenance moss walls in dimly lit areas to nurtured vertical gardens that host an array of plants or even vegetables. Adding a green wall to a home adds aesthetic appeal, offers environmental benefits, and improves air quality. Plus, the presence of vertical greenery has been shown to enhance the psychological and physical wellness of homeowners and guests alike, fostering a serene and healthful living environment. Particularly in cities or densely populated towns, green walls can provide a much-needed touch of nature, helping to counteract the concrete landscape and introducing to urban environments.
The Costs
Integrating a green wall into your modern home involves varying costs, reflective of the scale of the wall, the type of vegetation selected, and the structural modifications required to support the weight and watering needs of the plants. Watering systems for these green walls range from manual to sophisticated automated solutions, and the costs increase along with the complexity of the system. Maintenance demands also differ drastically; interior moss walls require little to no ongoing care, whereas more elaborate vertical gardens require regular attention, pruning, and watering. While the upfront and recurring costs may be considerable, the investment in a green wall pays dividends in enhancing the aesthetic, environmental, and wellness aspects of a home, making it a worthwhile addition to many modern home designs.
