Green revolution:

For years I have been saying that Green roofs are changing architecture; where it used to be that the top of a building was black tar and covered with mechanical equipment, now you sometimes cannot tell where the ground ends and the roof starts. Here is a terrific example from Designboom, a campus outse Paris designed by Jean-Philippe Pargade architecte. The most dramatic feature is the landscaped area, which in in fact a green roof on top of laboratories and public areas.
