2020 Plus a Look into 2021 Top 10 Hot List, 11 Categories, 11 Week Countdown

As promised since my 2020 Top 10 List of Hot RESILIENT Trends in Greenroof & Greenwall Design Plus a Look into 2021 video is perhaps for some, a bit long at just under an hour, we cut up my 14th installment of the yearly Top 10 Hot List into categories to make it easier (quicker) to watch.

You can see them all on our 2020 Top 10 List of Hot RESILIENT Trends in Greenroof & Greenwall Design Plus a Look into 2021 Playlist on our YouTube channel.

Greenroofs.com inaugurated the “Top 10 Hot List” in 2007, and the current 2020 Plus a Look into 2021 video is packed with extremely important, awesome, and inspiring projects located across six continents.

This is installation number nine in the 11-part series counting down my yearly “Greenroofs.com Top 10 List of Hot Trends in Greenroof & Greenwall Design” by category, this year modified with the very important RESILIENT in front of “Trends.”

And new this year, for 2020 I’ve defined the Top 10 categories in terms of their Resiliency application.

2020 Plus a Look into 2021 Top 10 Hot List Category #2:

Creating Environmental Sustainability with Science, Technology & Green Zones

The Plus

From all four sides of the buildings, visitors and staff are invited to hike around and conclude on the greenroof terrace, transforming the furniture factory museum into a campus in the woods. 

Chengdu Sky Valley

A network of gently sloping paths follows the topography of the area, with public bridges that allow for cross-industrial encounters and cooperation connecting the building clusters. By retaining the existing landscape, the masterplan forms a more diverse community with a wider choice of lifestyles.

Toyota Woven City

Hidden from view in an underground network lies the infrastructure of the city, including hydrogen power, stormwater filtration and a goods delivery network. Striving towards a carbon neutral society, with plans to break ground in phases beginning in 2021.

That’s It for This Week
