Urban Treehouse Protects Residents from Air and Noise Pollution

A vertical potted forest of trees and branching steel beams surround this apartment building in Turin, Italy.This Urban Treehouse is designed by Luciano Pia and the idea is that the urban forest installation absorbs the surrounding carbon dioxide that is a consistent problem in many large city’s around the globe.

This structure with over 150 trees can absorb almost 200.000 liters of carbon dioxide an hour and a great side affect it also blocks most of the noise pollution.. That is what we call Cool Urban Design.
