Once the substrate is prepared, the installation of the vertical wall follows a precise logic. The first step is a plan and perspective drawing, identifying the focal points (entrance, reception area, sofa, desk), and any cuts around doors, televisions, and company logos. The green wall isn't a rug to be rolled out, or wallpaper, but a designed element that must interact with its surroundings.
We then move on to securing the panels or frames. Depending on the substrate, this offers various solutions, such as hook systems, perimeter profiles, screwed panels, and magnetic solutions. Each system has its own uses. In environments where internal inspections are likely to be required, easily removable modules may be useful, while in other contexts, more stable and permanent panels are preferable.
Let's delve into the details of joint management: it's important to know how to place two moss panels side by side to avoid sharp separations, how to manually blend moss tufts to erase the joint line, and how to integrate artificial plants to avoid overly regular repetitions. Here, a skilled craftsman's eye is essential; it's often a matter of removing, moving, and adding to achieve a natural result.
A small section is dedicated to critical areas: electrical outlets, buttons, wall-mounted TVs, niches, protruding or recessed corners. Precise cuts must be considered, as must the edges of the moss around these elements, and how to keep outlets and controls accessible without ruining their aesthetics.
Finally, let's discuss the final overall check: viewing distance, correcting any gaps, and redefining a few tufts of greenery to visually balance the composition. A well-installed vertical wall should appear natural, with no visible elements and no areas where the covering appears taut or compressed.
We conclude by emphasizing an often-overlooked aspect: clean installation. A good installation includes adequate protection, minimal dust and debris management, and a tidy environment, ready to be lived in and photographed as soon as the work is completed.
Highlight
• A well-designed irrigation system ensures constant and controlled water supplies to the plants.
• Well-anchored modular structures allow inspections and interventions without demolishing the wall.
• The correct stratigraphy (support, panels, substrate, plants) improves the stability and durability of the system.
• Integration with sensors and control units simplifies management in unattended environments.
Low Light
• Improvised installations, without a logic of irrigation and drainage, increase the risk of rot and leaks.
• The complexity of the systems may require the presence of qualified technicians in the event of faults.
• Errors in planting density lead to overgrown and bare areas within a few months.
