Roofs designed for Bio Diversity

Multiformity and biodiversity

We now use a much wider variety of substrates and depth on our roofs. These include temporary pools, log piles, crushed ceramics, soil from the building's foundations and crushed concrete to act as a drainage channel. In fact - anything that will provide different habitats for both plants and animals.

Have fun!
