Factory Annopol

Warszawa

The project to implement nature-based solutions (NBS) at Galeria Factory Annopol involves the introduction of rain gardens, trees, shrubs, climbing plants and other features to enhance the green spaces.

What characteristic elements did we use in the project?
ENRICHEMENT

We have used native plant species that coexist with the local fauna and require less water and maintenance.

GREEN WALL

We have designed climbing plants on the façade, pergolas and trellises to promote biodiversity and reduce the urban heat island effect.

RAIN GARDENS

They are designed to intercept part of the rainwater flowing from the parking lot before it goes to the rainwater sewage system. They were located in places where there are no underground networks and near rainwater drainage inlets due to the ease of making emergency overflows.

DEPAVING

We are removing concrete to create new green spaces that are valuable to the ecosystem.

TEMPERATURE DECREASE

We have reduced the temperature by using pergolas, trellises and a green wall.

3
BIORETENTION

Our solutions increase the site’s water retention by an average of 7%.

BIODIVERSITY

We have introduced 8 new species of trees and shrubs, and 12 species of climbing plants, perennials and grasses.
