Building Stop
1 reactie
A few days ago I was visited by a housing inspector. He told me that my green tower was an illegal building which didn’t fit the formal destination ‘garden’. Today a formal letter arrived which tells me I have a building stop and will be fined 5000 euro for every day that I will continue.

Green Tower

This week I started to build the greentower that I had in mind already for quite a while. I am looking for a way to ‘green’ and hospitilize the way to big and unpleasant terrace, but without losing to much room on the terrace itself. The answer on the question ‘how to save room on the ground’ is easy, namely by using space in the air. The idea is to overspan a big part of the terrace with a pegola en to grow this from the garden and from plant containers. But big climbing plants need big containers, but my theory is that this space can also be sought in the air as on the ground. The greentower is build with old post sorting containers in a construction of wooden beams and iron shelfs. The green tower is bond together with iron wire and kept right up with steel pipe and tightening belts.
I keep information on the project posted here
