Shading Structure

Description

vegetal shade project, Valladolid, Spain

The GreenShades system consists of:

Tensioned sails (including anchors and supports).
Treatment of the fabric with specific substrate.
Irrigation system.
Water collection.
Sowing of the sails.

Process:

The sails with the chosen design (with their necessary anchors and supports) are prepared by laying down the specific geotextile substrate (hydroponic).

The irrigation system must reach the highest side, from where the water falls by gravity, soaking the entire substrate.

In addition to water, fertilizer must be provided to keep the vegetation in perfect condition.

The excess water is collected at the lowest point, and a drainage system must be connected.

Once the installation and checks of the irrigation and water collection are done, the seed mixture is projected onto the geotextile
