I love the way spaces can evolve around mood, people, change... anything. If I ever finish this degree (and actually use it - apparently only something around %30 of architecture students actually become architects... how depressing) I don't mind what sort of spaces I put out. As long as they allow and develop life, not inhibit it.
Living.
I have been looking at various living walls for inspiration for an assignment.
et suit:
One of the things I love most about living walls is when they are placed inside. Especially when they are contrasted against sleek metal, wood and glass combos.
I love the way this one looks like it is just a vegi garden (or maybe herbs) that has escaped and over-run it's pots.
I found both of these at the link above^^.
It is a site titled 'Garden Beet'. It has some other really cool living walls as well.
This image ^^ Comes from a different web site titled 'Inspiration Wall' [ http://lisastown.com/inspirationwall/2009/10/ ]. The building is in Osaka, Japan. As usual; the Japanese have everything down to a fin art and beauty. I know this isn't exactly 'living walls' But the whole complex has such a style and grace to it. What's more the building seems to complement and accentuate the plants.
