An office buildingdesign, previously realized, has been the base for a study about particularthemes concerning passive behavior, façade systems, thermal flows computationand air-conditioning system hypothesis. Particular attention required the studyof different green wall system typologies, designed in relation to the solarradiation dynamics. The façade-green wallsystem highlights the functionality of the action, which expresses, at thesame time, an architectural language, typical of vertical greeneries. The useof green walls as solar shading presents huge advantages in term of thermal comfort, mainly because we’re talkingabout dynamic systems.
