Factory Gliwice

Gliwice

The project to implement nature-based solutions (NBS) at Galeria Factory Gliwice 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.

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.

GREEN WALL

We have planted climbing plants along the south-facing wall.

DEPAVING

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

BIORETENTION

We have designed rain gardens with a capacity of 160 m3.

3
BIODIVERSITY

We have converted 575 m² of lawns into areas undergoing natural succession.

TEMPERATURE DECREASE

We have reduced the temperature by installing pergolas, trellises and new plantings, and by repainting the roof white.
