Biodiverse Amenity Space

Green roofs provide an enjoyable green space for building residents as well as an urban habitat for insects and pollinators. A biodiverse green roof offers greater conservation and environmental benefits, such as stormwater management, compared to conventional roofs.

The extensive lightweight and “soilless” system used on Two Old Mill is 30 mm thick and is comprised of loose-laid base layers and a pre-vegetated mat. The mat includes 8-10 species of sedum and arrives mature with 80 per cent foliar coverage. This extensive system is beautifully blended with a vibrant palette of perennials planted in an intensive green roof system.
