The overall goal of the high-rise, dubbed W350, is to help realize an environmentally conscious city of wooden buildings that would transform Tokyo into a “forest.”
An ISGlobal study analyses for the first time lifelong residential exposure to greenness in children.
In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the invention is said to have the same environmental impact as 275 urban trees.
The two green towers could provide the city with a breath of fresh air, producing around 132 pounds of oxygen every day as they absorb carbon dioxide. They’ll accomplish this air-cleaning feat with 1,100 flourishing trees and 2,500 cascading shrubs and plants.
