# Rooftop Garden Homes The 'V House' by Plan B Architects has a Grass Field on Top By Annie Ho | Published 2010-07-26 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/v-house-by-plan-b-architects References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2010/07/24/the-v-house-by-plan-b-architects/) & [planbarquitectura](http://www.planbarquitectura.com/) Located near Bogota, Colombia, the 'V House' by Plan B Architects is centered on an innovative idea that puts this eco-home above all others: it has a grass field on top of the roof. Building this home was a risk since it is located on a slope. The home was built with the aim of taking away stress from the owner's life and giving them a relaxing atmosphere at the end of a hard work day. The rooftop garden of the 'V House' by Plan B Architects starts from the ground floor and elevates itself up to the roof. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Green Roofs:** The use of green roofs can enhance building sustainability and reduce the urban heat island effect, while also providing innovative landscape opportunities. - **Eco-friendly Homes:** The trend towards eco-friendly homes is increasing, encouraging the development of sustainable and efficient building practices. - **Biophilic Design:** Biophilic design, incorporating natural elements into architecture and interior design, is becoming more popular as a way to bring nature indoors and enhance well-being. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Architecture and Construction:** Opportunities for architects and builders to incorporate green roofs and eco-friendly design into new and existing buildings. - **Landscaping and Gardening:** Increased demand for rooftop gardens and green roofs creates opportunities for professionals in the landscaping and gardening industry. - **Environmental Sustainability:** Growing interest in eco-friendly homes and biophilic design presents opportunities for businesses focused on creating environmentally sustainable products and solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Plant-Covered Concrete Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-kd45.md) - [Planted Balcony Home Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-greens.md) - [Three-Story Garden Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nirvana-house.md) - [Planted Roof Extension Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hope-villa.md) - [Green Garden-Surrounding Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hillside-house-1.md) - [Greenhouse-Topped Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-house-1.md) - [Wavy Concrete Roof-Topped Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vaazh-house.md) - [Green Roof Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shibanee-kamal.md) - [Tranquil Argentinian Forest Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-house-1.md)
