System build-up:

ZinCo system build-ups depending on the roof pitch with Floradrain®, Floraset® and Georaster®

With approx. 1,000 m² of planted roof area, this unique building is eye-catching from every side. The extraordinary structure gives the impression that it is rising gently out of the ground. This is due both to the roof areas that reach right down to the ground and the light and graceful elegance of the glass facades. Three different ZinCo system build-ups were required for the different roof pitches of 4°, 20° and 40–45°. Firmly held in place and stable, the Mediterranean Flowering Meadow is adapted to suit the hot arid climate of the region and will thrive there.
