Roofs pose challenges in water management due to their expansive, impermeable surfaces that exacerbate urban heat islands. Mitigating these issues requires innovative solutions like blue-green roofs and improved drainage systems to reduce runoff and cool urban areas.
City challenges
Water boards worldwide are faced with a form of flooding. During heavy rain showers, streets and sewers overflow. This phenomenon will be counteracted by creating extra space to buffer rainwater and relieve the sewers.
City challenges
Traditional roofs are a source of heat and harbor a lot of heat stress. Aesthetically, these roofs add nothing to the environment and, apart from blocking out the elements, roofs have no further function.
City challenges
Space in cities is scarce. People are constantly looking for new places to stay or use. Roofs, no matter where: for example on apartment complexes, offices, parking garages, sports halls, offer great opportunities to store water, grow greenery, enhance biodiversity or provide accommodation.
