The Vertical Forest is recognized as the best skyscraper on the planet. Two buildings currently under construction in the center of Milan will apparently become the first skyscrapers on our planet densely planted with trees from top to bottom. “Vertical Forest” (Bosco Verticale) is a project by Italian architect Stefano Boeri. These are two residential buildings, on the floors of which about 900 trees of different heights will grow: 3, 6 and 9 meters, plus various shrubs and flowers. Trees in Milan will grow on two towers 105 and 78 meters high. The tallest of the towers, Torre E, will rise to 105 m and have 24 floors. The Torre D building with 17 floors will rise 78 m. In addition to housing and gardens, the “vertical forest” will have restaurants, fitness centers and parking lots. The towers will become green not only on the outside: they will have solar and wind power plants, advanced ventilation, lighting and all kinds of recycling systems. The project by architect Stefano Boeri is not one, but two skyscrapers that create a single complex. The heights of the buildings located in the Porta Nuova area of Milan are 78 and 111 meters. About 900 trees from 3 to 9 meters in height, as well as various shrubs and flowers grow on the floors. The towers have become “green” not only on the outside: they are equipped with solar and wind power plants, advanced ventilation, lighting and all kinds of recycling systems. According to the architect, if his “forest” were traditionally “horizontal”, he would have required an additional 10 thousand square meters of land. Two buildings in the center of Milan became the first skyscrapers on the planet to be densely planted with trees from top to bottom. Construction started in 2007, the project budget was 65 million euros. These environmentally friendly buildings have already been awarded the title of “best skyscrapers” and the prestigious International Highrise Award. It is an initiative of the Museum of Architecture in Frankfurt and is awarded every two years by an interdisciplinary and international panel after evaluating buildings that exceed 100 meters. When evaluating projects, criteria such as sustainability, design, living spaces, and integration with the environment are taken into account. More than 800 structures from all over the world competed for this prize.
