Supertrees, Super City!


Supertrees, a vertical garden comprising  18 bromeliads, ferns and tropical flowering climbers that range between 25 metres (82ft) and 50 metres (160 ft). These plants mimic the ecological functions of tress through their environmentally sustainable features, some with photovoltaic cells on their caponies to harvest solar energy that enables them to light up at night, while others are integrated with cooled conservatories and serve as air exhaust receptacles. During the day, the Supertrees canopies provide shade to the rest of the space, while at night, they are lit up through a series of lighting and multimedia projections for a multi-sensory experience. Another great casual dining option is the Supertree Grove, where you can find a range of cozy cafe-type establishments.
