The video discusses a project that uses a natural barrier of plants to combat urban pollution. Landscape designers Kiara and Stefania selected 22 plant species, both exotic and native, to thrive in varying light conditions across a multi-facade building. The project emphasizes the use of organic care methods, avoiding chemical fertilizers, and highlights the challenges faced, such as unpleasant odors from organic compost. The result is a lush, green environment that enhances urban air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. The project is celebrated for its success in integrating nature into urban architecture.
