Case Study
A Vistafolia artificial green living wall on this residential balcony in Miami, Florida. Although this balcony in Miami, Florida offers a breath-taking view, your eyes are still drawn to the vibrant green wall that features on both sides of the balcony. The clients reasoning for having an artificial wall in their residence is for three reasons. Firstly, the artificial wall means that it requires little to no maintenance; and therefore an easier concept to install. Secondly, how cost effective it is. Similar to the maintenance, but a real living wall requires an irrigation system that can be have a lot of cost implications. Lastly, the weather in Miami, Florida can be remarkably unpredictable and humid and therefore, Vistafolia artificial green living wall can withstand those changes and humidity.
Colour & Texture Boxes
Something that our competitors don’t have access to or they can’t offer is the Vistafolia Colour & Texture Boxes. These boxes are to help further increase the bespoke design that the 3 panel solution offers; but to also help the walls become fully customisable with the introduction of colour and texture. There are 6 boxes to choose from which add a whole new dimension to your new or existing Vistafolia artificial green living wall. Although the default foliage is fastened to the sturdy steel frame backing; these can be seamlessly slotted amongst the original foliage and add a bold wash of texture and colour to your wall.
Fixings
Although these panels are designed to look like the foliage is bursting out the walls, but even those these panels are incredible, sadly Vistafolia is not quite magic. However, our state-of-the-art fixings are pretty close. These fixings are incredibly sturdy and can help fasten the steel grid to most substrates. These can be purchased alongside the panels and colour and texture boxes; therefore you get them all in the same order! Plus, you aren’t on your own. We offer tutorials as to how you can install these panels so that you can do it properly at home without the assistance of our installation team.
Design & Performance
The design of these artificial green living wall are unique in a variety of ways. Firstly, these panels come with a unique 3 panel solution that helps reduce the repetition in design of the panels. The 3 panel solution labels each panel as A. B & C and that means that the pattern can be varied in different configurations from one design to the next. Secondly, the UV rating is one of the leading ratings in artificial green living wall panels meaning that, even when exposed to direct sunlight for prolong periods of time, the colour will not fade for a minimum of 5 years. However, especially as a residential wall in Florida, we have examples of when this has been exceeded.
Research & Development
This realistic looking artificial green living wall looks at home in Miami, Florida although these panels were developed and designed in the United Kingdom. Just outside London, Vistafolia’s head office features a research and development lab that looks for new, innovative ways to create a better product than the last iteration. Although; you’ll be hard pressed to find a more realistic artificial green living wall in the USA; Vistafolia aim to keep being the market leaders in this industry and we always look to do more. Currently, the research and development department are looking for new ways to become more sustainable, creating a biopolymer that can be used in the artificial foliage. This therefore allows us to become more sustainable and reduce our impact on the planet.
Safety
Amongst all the work we do to make sure our artificial green living wall panels is the best on the market, it also has to be the safest. The Vistafolia artificial green living wall panels are the only panels on the market that offer Fire and UV rating. This means that the panels will not aid the spread of fire and that the colour within the panel will remain bold even when exposed to long hours of sunlight.
