massimo iosa ghini: 'south face' installation

'south face', a project by iosa ghini associati, is an architectural installation which consists
of an insulated, modular wall composed of hollow panels made from eco-cement and quarry substrates that can accommodate thick, lush foliage. the south-facing façade of the structure forms a vertical garden which absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and uses this to insulate the environment it encloses from humidity.
