| Description: | Bee-Stop is a semi-permanent green roof installation above a parade of shops on the Holloway Road London. It is sewn with resilient nectar rich flowers and plants to investigate both the viability of specific plants and the specially fabricated growing structure. Bee-Stop is part on an ongoing research project into interventions with growing structures.It is predicated on evidence suggesting the benifits of urban greening in high-density built environments suggesting replacing hard surfaces with growing surfaces helps mitigate against air pollution, rainwater loss, urban heat radiation as well as supporting biodiversity through co-opting even small urban spaces. |
