Grey into Green
Grey into Green
Poland
The program aims to transform grey, concrete areas at schools and kindergartens into green. The program is an element of climate change adaptation through the use of nature-based solutions that promote local rainwater management and increase biodiversity. Schools are encouraged not only to "unseal" concrete yards, but also to enrich their landscaping projects with elements of blue and green infrastructure, such as rain gardens, flower meadows, climbing plants, vegetable gardens or rain barrels.

Creative Laboratory Krater

SAVAGE / SAVVAĻA
Latvia
“Savage” is a place in Latvian wilderness where people go to become а more self-aware and caring-for-the-group version of themselves, breathing in and out together with nature, seeing art, making art, listening to animals and poetry, discussing concepts in the daytime and dancing throughout the night; sometimes the other way around.
“Savage” is a place of shared trust, wild meadows, building skills, changing perspectives, laying in the sun – everyone’s welcome.

Rural Geometries Project - Rehabilitation of common natural and cultural heritage for Sándorfalva
Hungary
Paradigma Ariadné architecture studio was invited by the city of Sándorfalva to design a buffalo barn and an educational trail into their natural protected land that today is wholly covered with reeds. The initial aim of the development was to immigrate buffalos to the place. This act has two outcomes. On one hand visitors would have the chance to visit the trail and meet these creatures in their living environment. On the other hand buffalos will recultivate the area with their presence.

Grapoila Permaculture Project
Grapoila Permaculture Project
What has an office building in the capital got to do with permaculture? Or office workers with planting, composting, rainwater harvesting, or the roots of a goat's beard? Nothing and everything. Grapoila Permaculture is a unique initiative in Hungary to revitalize a neglected, desertified area around an office building in a permaculture approach. The area thus regenerates faster, provides food, serves as a resting area, and as an ever-changing educational base due to the seasonality.
