Green roof building architecture

The Moesgaard Museum in Aarhus, Denmark looks as if it is rising out of the ground. See more breathtaking and innovative buildings that are redefining architecture.

Our highly sophisticated green roofing system with Georaster® elements even enables the installation of steep pitched roofs up to 35°.

As architects look to green roof systems and their potential in projects, we’ve created a basic guide as an introduction into green roof systems.

Green roofs are a layered combination of vegetation and membrane over a building that can help insulate and provide water management.

Roofs that hold water: reduce heating and cooling costs, increase life of roof, and create a rooftop garden! Would be great on a shipping container home, as there might be a risk of collapsed roof otherwise if drainage isn't sufficient.

The key feature of the Nayang Technology University School of Art, Design and Media by CPG Consultants is a green roof that slopes almost at a 45-degree angle, lowering both the roof temperature and ambient temperature and hence reducing heat gain to the air-conditioned building.

Structure of a Green Roof ~ Geofoam is often specified for green roof applications. It is made out of expanded polystyrene, adding to the thermal envelope of the building construction.

We are strong proponents of incorporating green roofs into a building's design, as they can provide numerous advantages to a building.
