Greening the City, exhibition at the DAM in Frankfurt
It is evident that green plays a vital role in architecture, and we are all familiar with iconic examples of landmarks adorned with greenery.

The DAM exhibition called Greening the City opens at the end of the month, and there is still time to submit green projects to be included on an interactive map.

The Best of Livegreenblog Sustainable Architecture 2020
We saw many cases of sustainable architecture in 2020, including offices, libraries, houses, pavilions and schools.
