Covering an eye-sore

Taking advantage of the versatility of the Viritopia Living Wall System, we designed the planting to wrap around the sides of the two external concrete ventilation enclosures and used the Viritopia GrufeKit on top to disguise them as eyesores and provide a creative addition to the landscaped area. Viritopia worked closely with Trehearne to meet the requirements and ensure that the plants worked alongside the louvered opening.
