BLOCK COMPOSITION

BLOCK SIZE
GROWTH PROCESS
STACKING
Every course is mirrored and offset in an alternating face up, face down pattern. Each unit fits together with alternating seams.
CONSTRUCTION
Blocks will be placed in a rapid succession by a fast-brick robotics truck. The walls will then be filed with concrete that is reinforced with helix steel micro rebar.
TRANSFORMATION
Blocks over time will start to grow and fill the inner structure with vine plants turning the concrete skeleton into a beautiful green wall.
