Ecologically positive provided the planting is appropriate though it could be encouraged to include edible landscapes in the project, esspecially considering its status as a SOCIAL housing project. Environmentally mediocre, no direct move to sustainability and in fact green walls would at least have provided an insulation factor and could possibly help lift the residents out of fuel poverty. Urban design wise, where are the active interfaces, they have become so blured in the planting that its hard to tell what is active and what is passive. The planting may add to legibility but a monotonous scheme would just create a neverending path (I can hear the cries of are we there yet already)… And is the planting scheme going to be controled or can people change their own space to allow for personalisation and a feeling of ownership wich is important in rental schemes.

Thank you.
