The art of vertical landscaping: masterpieces of Patrick Blanc
There are only a few people in the world who bringso much nature and plant life into the concrete jungle of urban spaces and concrete surfaces. Patrick Blanc is perhaps the most talented, large-scale and famous artist-decorator working with vertical landscaping of almost any surface both outdoors and indoors.
The French botanist began his activitiesin the 1980s as a research fellow. Gradually, the idea of reviving the urban landscape with green vegetation resulted in the concept of vertical urban gardens. So since the 2000s, Patrick is considered the founder and ideological inspirer of vertical gardening all over the world. His masterpieces can be found in different parts of the world: cities in South and North America, Europe and Asia. For the artist, there are no too big walls or too high ceilings. Any surface of the house, be it an external wall or an interior, magically comes to life, giving birth to fantastic patterns and ornaments. By the way, Patrick Blanc was also invited to work on the exterior and interior of the future Kyiv Botanic Hotel. So in the near future, residents and guests of the Ukrainian capital will be able to admire the creation of the great master of vertical gardening live! In the meantime, several world projects are below:
