Green walls have become very popular due to the eco-friendly and sustainable trends as consumers are looking for natural alternatives for their homes while also aiming to live a healthier life.
At the recent Denfair show in Melbourne, living infrastructure specialists Junglefy and Australian designer Adam Cornish took the green movement to another level with their collaboration on the Junglefy Breathing Wall.
According to Cornish the Junglefy Breathing Wall is more than just another green-wall system.
“We have created a living organic filter, capable of removing pollutants at the fastest rate proven by independent scientific literature,” he says.
“This installation is about raising awareness of air pollution as a massive global issue whilst also offering hope that as humans we can harness nature to solve this problem.”
The Junglefy Breathing Wall is made up of plants carefully chosen for their abilities to clean the air and thrive inside. From a design perspective the plants are the hero feature of the product and evoke an emotional and physical connection to a space.
The Junglefy Breathing Wall can be scaled to fit any size internal wall and is also available as a free-standing unit allowing it to be moved and customised to suit any contemporary design. It can also be used in outdoor spaces such as entire building facades, walls and even along motorways.
The module itself has been designed using the principles of Circular Economy to ensure it can be used over and over again.
“Everyone has the right to breathe clean air and given the amount of pollutants in our environment predominantly from exhaust fumes, furniture, paints and carpets we must increase our awareness and act now,” says Jock Gammon, Junglefy’s co-founder and managing director.
“I am enormously proud of our collaboration with Adam Cornish and together I believe we have created something that is beautiful, environmentally restorative and also serves as a functional tool for providing cleaner air resulting in happier, healthier people.”
