THE SCREEN THAT IS GREEN!

A vertical garden is designed by Banduk Smith Studio to serve as the focal point of a restaurant’s interior design. This design cleverly doubles as an important climatic feature. .. when amazo armeida, an all-day café located at the intersection of two important thoroughfares on the outskirts of ahmedabad needed a pertinent solution to combat the sun-soaked afternoons of their outdoor area, the designers in their signature minimalist approach identified a vertical garden as an all-consuming innovative solution. They custom-engineered a structure in order to battle the loud and busy street side, as well as to serve as a naturally perforated screen that provides seclusion without compromising the open area. It is made out of bent mild steel (MS) pipes and is a system of interlocking components that are connected to one another by means of smaller, alternating pieces of mild steel. This results in the frame having a trapezoidal shape because it takes a step backwards as it moves higher. It is supported by concrete planters at its base, which also serve as water troughs for the potted plants that seem to be floating above. This three-dimensional mesh is supported by these planters. A basket made of mild steel is likewise supported by the knitted structure, and it is this basket that contains the ceramic pots. located in the south-eastern direction, the intense heat necessitates the cultivation of climate-friendly and sturdy plants. The plants that are drooping and growing upwards generate a blanket over the mesh, which helps to disguise, at least in part, the structural framework of the mesh. A drip irrigation system is also included into the design. This system is not only used to hydrate the plants, but it is also used to moisten the mesh, which helps to cool the hot breezes that enter the restaurant via the mesh. Although there is a lot of wind pressure, the whole system is able to keep itself together, which helps to stabilize the building. Echoing the congruence of the planter-screen outside, the interiors of the restaurant are adorned with open-framed shelving to create alcoves of personal places. This is a continuation of the design language that is used inside the restaurant. The remainder of the interiors are kept open and, for the most part, devoid of any artifice, while the outside is framed by big fixed-glazed windows that provide a straightforward and seamless conversation. By using a straightforward approach that takes into account a variety of factors, such as atmosphere, temperature, and atmosphere, the designers were able to successfully change an otherwise unremarkable bistro into a place that is now trendy. There are pictures of the restaurant and its vertical garden that can be seen on the website indiaartndesign.com.
