greendesigngirl: Lifewall by Ceracasa [via ledsilhouette]: “Lifewall tiles also interface with another Ceracasa product called Bionictile, which is able to suck pollution out of the air.” The eco trend of living walls is more popular than ever, though the technology has come a long way since I first wrote about Louis Vuitton’s walls getting the green treatment in early 2008. The new Lifewall system by Spain’s Ceracasa is not only modern and modular [two traits that I love!], but also super intelligent on the green front. The white ceramic Bionictiles have the capacity to ”destroy harmful nitrogen oxides [NOx] which are in the air… caused by pollution from cars and industries.” The tiles use a “patented glaze which causes NOx to react with UV sun rays and humidity, turning the NOx into very small quantities of nitrates and nitrites, inert and harmless to human health.” A wall that can actually help to improve the quality of the air that surrounds it? If that’s not worthy of a bionic name, I don’t know what is.
