Anthropologie Huntsville AL
A lush, green, vertical landscape was envisioned as a new kind of facade for Anthropologie’s presence in Huntsville, Alabama. The soil-based walls support panels of sedum genus that bloom in spring and stay green in the colder months when they provide extra insulation. In the summer, the south facing walls absorb UV rays, cooling the interior.. The walls are bordered by white washed slats of wood screens and were conceived as a response to the rich landscape of the South and its rural typology. Ultimately the walls help to support an awareness of the environment and establish a more modern way of looking at nature.
