Installed by: Oasis Landscapes (New Zealand) using ANS Global proven plant module system

Scope of Works

The Living Plant Wall, installed by Oasis Landscapes - New Zealand, also uses the ANS Global Plant module design, of which SMI National are the exclusive distributors in Australia.
Oasis Landscapes (New Zealand) created 7 detailed planting designs, each creating a unique atmosphere, with particular focus on the structural effect, along with detailed consideration of the natural ambience. Once the final design was created and refined, Oasis grew the wall in a dedicated nursery at ANS Global, United Kingdom. Installation was carried out and resulted in an instant impact, creating a natural expansive atmosphere, aligning with an impression of possibility the designers sought to form. As the living wall by Oasis was such a key part of the project design, the architect and designers carefully situated the living wall so it could be seen from almost anywhere in the luxurious complex.
