Netherlands, an unexpected tenant has taken root inside a 23-story office building. Occupying two middle floors of the aptly named Central Park development, a lofty indoor garden contains over 1,500 plants and trees and is bisected by a stone-lined burbling stream. The garden serves tenants like McDonald\u2019s Netherlands and Dutch bank ABN AMRO in an office building that is publicly accessible via elevated walkway from the nearby Utrecht Centraal rail station.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">The surreal indoor landscape is the result of a collaboration between Amsterdam-based green design agency <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moss.amsterdam\/\">MOSS<\/a> (Makers of Sustainable Spaces), Rotterdam-based <a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupaarch.com\/\">Group A architects<\/a>, developers Angelo Gordon and APF, as well as scores of engineers, landscapers, and technical consultants.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">\u201cWe were sitting in engineering meetings years in advance to plan irrigation, lighting, and integrated structural support,\u201d says Kelai Diebel, MOSS managing director. \u201cIf the discussion only happens at the end of a project, it\u2019s not possible to realize this scale of green dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Steel tensile rods added to load-bearing beams beneath the garden\u2019s trees and to the space\u2019s raised platforms support their additional weight. The double-height curved glass facade panels, supported by anchors attached to the concrete floors, were assembled off-site and craned into place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column article-header_content is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"object-fit:cover;object-position:50% 50%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"699\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/MOSS_CENTRALPARK_4-699x1024.jpg\" alt=\"interior showing garden inside a skyscraper\" class=\"wp-image-90790\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/MOSS_CENTRALPARK_4-699x1024.jpg 699w, https:\/\/metropolismag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/MOSS_CENTRALPARK_4-205x300.jpg 205w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 699px) 100vw, 699px\" \/><figcaption>Extra large windows flood natural light into the double-height green space.\nA hardwood pathway winds its way through the garden and over a small creek.

It\u2019s a botanical wonderland,\u201d says Diebel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Shade-loving, broad-leaved figs and ferns occupy the core, while sun seekers like olive trees and palms line the perimeter. Powder-coated steel planters contain hidden water crates topped by a permeable felt layer that separates the soil substrate, but allows roots to dive down for water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">Walkways made of Louro Itauba, a fine-grained Brazilian hardwood, wind through the office building space, leading to seating areas and elevated landings. \u201cWhen you stand over the peak of a mountain, you get a rush,\u201d says Diebel. \u201cWe\u2019re trying to replicate that, balanced with spaces that are calm and quiet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"size-regular\">\u201cWe spend about 90 percent of our lives indoors. When the eyes observe greenery, cortisol levels and blood pressure decrease, and it stimulates areas of the brain associated with creativity,\u201d adds Diebel. \u201cIt\u2019s about reengaging our innate affinity for nature.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"comment size-regular\">Would you like to comment on this article?
