Our Industrial Design & Engineering student Iris Laagland has developed a series of designs for bluegreen panels to be tested on the roof of our Horst building. Each panel has its own method for capturing water, and is covered with a minimal level of soil to keep it lightweight. We are lucky to have a gift of sedum plants from Farwick for this project. The performance of the different panels will be analysed by our students of the minor smart solutions for sustainable cities, both for the regulation of extreme temperatures and the potential of water capture within the soil.
