Vertical gardens are a relatively new field of work, and as such it has room for a lot of development. Since 2004, Vertical Garden Design has focused on the design aspect of these type of gardens - to offer projects that stand out from the average range. This involves a continuous effort to increase the knowledge about suitable plants in order to create gardens for a wide range of locations and climates.
The company was started by Michael Hellgren, a Swedish landscape architect with studies at SLU in Uppsala, Sweden and École d’architecture et de paysage de Bordeaux, France.
The work with vertical gardens began with the degree thesis Vegetation on vertical surfaces in indoor environments — A model for a technical solution, where the technique, developed by Frenchman Patrick Blanc, was studied. The first vertical garden in Sweden was built in 2004. Since then, projects have been carried out in several European countries.
