Twierdza Zamość

Zamość

The project to implement nature-based solutions (NBS) at the Twierdza Shopping Centre in Zamość involved the conversion of hard surfaces, the creation of green walls using climbing plants, the installation of rain gardens, and new plantings.

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.

DEPAVING

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

GREEN WALL

We have designed climbing plants for the façade to promote biodiversity and reduce the urban heat island effect.

What results have we obtained?

1
BIORETENTION

In response to heavy rainfall, we have designed 15 rain gardens.

2
TEMPERATURE REDUCTION

We have reduced the temperature by replacing hard surfaces with green spaces featuring trees and providing shade.

3
SOIL QUALITY

We have improved soil quality by increasing aeration and enriching the soil with beneficial organisms.

4
BIODIVERSITY

We have introduced 8 new species of trees and shrubs, and 10 species of climbing plants, perennials and grasses.
