意大利米兰的建筑工人如今正在热火朝天地建造两座公寓大楼，和普通公寓楼不一样的是，这两座楼建成之后，从外面看起来它们就像是垂直的“空中森林”。
The towers, called the Bosco Verticale, are under construction in the city of
Towering over the city skyline, these are the world’s first forest in the sky apartments. With trees equal to one hectare of forest spanning 27 floors, these 365 and 260-foot twin towers will be home to an astonishing 730 trees, 5,000 shrubs (灌木) and 11,000 ground plants.
Michele Brunello, 35, director of Boeri Studios, explained, “The idea for a vertical (垂直的) forest came when we were involved in a local tree planting project. We imagined a building that allowed the landscape to enter it. By creating a tower that truly becomes a home for the landscape, we have a powerful tool.”
Brunello’s concept was designed to save on land, which is a precious resource in the centre of a major city.
The apartments range in price from £560,000 for a low level 80-square meter apartment to £1.7 million for a 200-square meter house with views of the city.
