The Oulu Bar & EcoLounge in Williamsburg is Brooklyn's first living wall installation. In addition to vastly improving the looks of the bar (see before picture), the vertical greenery installment makes a very loud environmental statement to all passersby. We can all help by incorporating environmental designs into our everyday life, from homes to businesses.
In addition to the outdoors design, the wood paneling on the interior walls carries the natural feel of the living wall inside the lounge.
