#9 is actually more accurately a faculty. It’s the School of Art, Design & Media in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. I liked #2 best.

I would add the new Vancouver Convention Centre to the list – it’s not only a green roof, but one using native plants. http://www.e-architect.co.uk/canada/jpgs/vancouver_convention_centre_west_ppr090409_1.jpg

The green roof at the School of Art and Design in Singapore is spectacular. Great article! Green roofs are really taking off, not only are they creative, artistic, and require genius architecture, but they reduce energy use, and help with the urban heat island effect. This is green building at its best

These are great shots! I love green roofs.

One of my sites is Clean Air Through Green Roofs http://www.cleanerairforcities.blogspot.com

I would love to see more residential green roofs in the US.

Wow the thought of a green roof actually existing is truly remarkable. First, green roofs. Next should be green movies! Don’t know what I’m referring to?

Just recently I caught bits of a documentary on T.V. about creating urbans green spaces in unused, available although unexpected location. I guess that documentary roots stemmed from whats already happening globally.

It’s a super idea and I know if more people realized what potential laid hidden on their rooftops, many cities would become a whole lot greener overnight.

But I am totally in love with the hobbit dwelling…80)
