I bet this would go along great in a modern home, especially for the urban setting considering theres not a lot of greenery in the tightly packed urban areas. Really innovative.

Having indoor plants can definitely help. I'm deeply intrigued by self-managing, larger systems such as the GreenFortune Plantwall, which seems like an excellent solution for those who lack a green thumb (like myself).

Not only is it, well, green, but it looks freakin' awesome. I would love to get one of those in my home. Man, what an outstanding idea. Not only is it, well, green, but it looks freakin’ awesome.

I would like to know if the Plantwall is available and more about its design and cost. More on Anya's connections would also be valuable. Green Fortune’s website has a broken link to their US outlet.

I was designing outdoor spaces of vertical gardens 20 years ago, there are several huge buildings here in South Florida that have executed the concept successfully over the years, also.Epcot has had displays on systems like this, integrating drip irrigation, fertilizer distribution, etc. There are also reference lists available that help you select the right plant for the right pollutant (removal). http://www.wolvertonenvironmental.com/airFAQ.htmStill, it's good to see such publicity for this type of system, they are needed.
