Jeff Basset of Unisource Global Solutions, in Chandler, AZ, recently worked with our regional sales representative Jon Willingham to design an interior living wall for their offices. They enlisted the help of Joe Zazzera and his team from Plant Solutions in Scottsdale to install and maintain the wall.

We frequently have people ask us whether it is complicated to install a TerraScreen system. This series of pictures answers that question better than anything…

TerraScreen goes Down Under…

The TerraScreen continues to make its way around the world! You can find one at our partner’s office in Dubai, and most recently I received a picture from Rudy Ursem at Green Design in Sydney. They wanted to try out the system, and have been working with our partner A-Z Irrigation in Australia. They put their first one up in their conference room to see how it works. Rudy didn’t think there was anything special about it – we beg to differ!

They are currently looking at using them without irrigation in several applications. They like the sub-irrigation component, and think that they can make it work with their current 4-week maintenance rotations.

Freestanding TerraScreen Demo, Mountain View, CA

We were pleased to do a TerraScreen® demonstration this week for a very large internet company in Mountain View. Creative Plant Design, the company’s interiorscaper, and Sunborne Nursery (a wholesale nursery and Tournesol distributor) coordinated the effort and provided the plant material. By setting up the installation on the fly and then removing it after 3 days, we showed how easy the system is to install and move around. The demo featured a 4′x4′ and a 4′x8′ section.

One of the most attractive things for the client was the option of using the living wall as a freestanding screen that could be moved around at will. They were already using whiteboards for the same purpose. The TerraScreen stand can be outfitted with casters, and with the self-contained irrigation it is free to go anywhere.

We were recently sent images by our friends at Plantscapes in Seattle, who just completed the installation of this TerraScreen living wall. It is part of a “workplace lab” for a very large software company in Seattle. They are continually updating the way that they structure their workspaces, and invited Plantscapes to install a living wall as a demonstration project. In addition to what you see above, they will be installing a custom one-row TerraScreen panel on the endcap, to complete the wrap-around look. They wanted to leave the end exposed initially so that the employees could understand how the system works.
