I hope You like it :slight_smile:

That copper(ish) cladding is going to look great, do you have a link to the manufacturer site or photos of it in use, I’d like to see how close you/Enscape got to it.

It is a product called WMzinc pigmento red. It is basically colored zinc. Not painted, but treated specifically, so all the qualities of zinc is still there ? I have samples of it here, and I’ve tried to match it as close as I could ?

Based on google search results you got a really good match. They’ve got some really nice shades in that range.

@2dartistuz what the hell has your statement got to do with the subject of this post? Also you’ve replied to 2 threads with the same statement, that’s bad forum etiquette.

Excuse me, please

And I live in the apartment so I have to ask.. (out of jealousy) who will cut the grass on the roof?

It’s a standard sedum green roof. It only grows to a certain length, depending on the species you go for. Once or twice a year it might be a good idea to clean it up a bit with a rack.

Our neighbors are bee keepers and we are actually letting them choose a portion of the species, to give the bees the best conditions (and the best possible honey for us afterwards, hehe).

Green roofs are great for controlling rainwater as well, as they slow the water flow down, and thus helps the sewers from overflowing. They are also good for the longevity of the roof, as they protect the underlying roof material… And they help with isolation ?

In Denmark many official buildings are required to have green roofs where possible, for all the same reasons ?.. And they are beautiful to look at.

well.. if I don’t forget I will ask You after a year of time how compares theory to practice.. Maybe more than a Year.. I guess You will start on spring.. maybe on autumn will be ready.. 2 years..
We often do green roofs on projects.. You win the competition and then get to specifics and half of them is lost while doing detailed project and I would say half of whats left during construction.. but thats not Denmark.

Lovely project! Thanks for sharing.

Really awesome looking model. How many hours of works went into that?
