Ecological approaches to application of vertical garden case of Tarabyaustu "Istanbul, Turkey"

Wall plants that we can see mostly in village and towns today and exist in a time period for years from past to the present time, reappear as concept of vertical garden in urban fabric with modern solutions for green areas reduced due to effect of urbanization.While existence of plants on walls would cause damage on structural unity of architectural structure by breaking their outer surface in the past, they can be implemented in controllable form by vertical gardens, now.Vertical gardens are one of the natural solution alternatives in outdoor coating due to their features of cleaning air by making contribution to both acoustic and heat installation and visual effect. In some solutions, this implementation does not need soil, plants can be used by selecting them under climate condition of place where they exist by providing solutions approached ecologically by landscape analysis.Many advantages as reducing concrete effect of urbanization by balancing oxygen, environment temperature, appearance of naturalness, and low energy consumption due to isolation can be expressed for vertical gardens.Production of constructions of vertical garden and their professional implementations on exterior fronts and inside of buildings are so little in our country vertical garden. As result, It is important to study on different landscape alternatives for urbanization by making researches and implementations based on ecology in our country for vertical garden developing fast in the world. Therefore, this study purposes to form an environmental consciousness by both of making economic contribution and providing a different dimension to architectural designs and implementation by providing information in production of vertical garden in our country.
