The Plant Base is an all-new urban gardening system that can be easily mounted on almost any architectural structure. It was designed to enhance urban living quality for the users as well as for the whole region and help fight against climate change. The gardening system allows most of us to own a garden by offering space we already forgot about and thus creating a green city together. Unused vertical space is everywhere and empty gray facades leave enough room for a real big green city jungle.
