'Going green' is the new edict of developers when seeking to enhance life in urban settings. In conceiving New York's 53W53 tower (pictured), Jean Nouvel has teamed up with the landscape designer Patrick Blanc, the modern developer of the 'vertical garden'

“绿色”是开发商在寻求改善城市生活时的新法令。现在，建筑师们正在引进关键的景观设计师来精细调整住宅和混合使用公寓。

在构思纽约53W53大楼时，普利茨克建筑奖得主让·努维尔与巴黎里兹建筑师蒂埃里·德斯庞特和景观设计师帕特里克·布兰克合作，后者是“垂直花园”的现代开发商。这套共管公寓将直接坐落在城市现代艺术博物馆(Museumof现代派)的上方，将于2018年开业。

Blanc说：“对于我的垂直花园，它将高达18英尺，环绕游泳池，我使用超过100种，其中很多来自热带雨林。”他们会给空间赋予一种诗意。

像这样的创造性计划也不局限于美国和欧洲。“现在，姬恩和我正在吉隆坡进行一个巨大的项目，”Blanc在马来西亚说，同时，他也在为新加坡、利雅得和科威特的发展创造垂直花园。

在切尔西，就在高线对面，Rees Roberts Partners的大卫·凯利(David Kelly)最近为位于西21街500号的科恩·彼得森·福克斯(Kohn Pedersen Fox)共管公寓楼建造了一座价值100万美元的花园。这座大楼横跨大楼的长度，安装工作花了整整两年的时间。凯利的景观设计由多层当地树木、灌木和花卉组成，其中包括生长完整的45英尺高的蝗树和白桦树。

为什么这种趋势会如此迅速地得到推动呢？布兰克解释道：“随着全球城市化进程的不断加快，居民们正在寻求大自然的庇护，以及室内和室外空间之间的直接联系。”

In Chelsea, opposite the High Line, David Kelly of Rees Roberts + Partners recently completed a $1 million garden for the Kohn Pedersen Fox condo tower at 500 West 21st Street (pictured)

The garden spans the length of the building; the installation took an entire two years to complete

Composed of multiple layers of local trees, shrubs and flowers, Kelly's landscape design includes fully-grown 45 ft high honey locust trees and white birches

'With increasing urbanisation globally, residents are seeking the sanctuary of nature and a direct connection between indoor and outdoor space,' Blanc explains of the trend's increasing traction
