The pot garden
The idea of the pot garden emerged in an early planning phase as a supporting pillar of the design. The stimulus for this was the early historical development, in which painted plant troughs were already used in Pompeii for the greening of roof gardens. In the inner courtyards of the WGV, the placement of the plant troughs allows different perspectives on various design focal points, such as the "water bowl" in one of the four inner courtyards.

Integration of technical equipment
Various supply lines find sufficient space under the elevated concrete slabs. The necessary technical installations, such as a large number of light and ventilation shafts, disappear under an all-embracing passepartout of hinged gratings in order to present a uniform image in terms of design.
