Nigerian Architects, Urban & Contemporary Architects (UCA) recently shared images of Greenville, a residential project in Old Ikoyi, Lagos. This noteworthy residential development, known as “The House of Trees” seeks to revive the lush greenery that once defined the area.
The design features sixty-six floating planters across four suspended floors, each equipped with an efficient mini drip irrigation and drainage system for water recycling and reuse. With over 400 trees, shrubs, herbs, and plants, Greenville creates a vibrant micro-ecosystem that supports biodiversity and contributes to reducing the greenhouse effect.
The U-shaped structure comprises 15 luxurious units, including terraces, flats, maisonettes, and penthouses, all offering unparalleled privacy through cascading zigzag balconies. The project seamlessly blends contemporary living with nature, setting a new standard for sustainable design in Lagos.
