ReShade
Urban Greening Device
"ReShade" is a cooling and greening device specifically designed for construction sites, with the goal of creating a more comfortable workspace for workers and fostering sustainable environments for the planet. This innovative design focuses on lowering the temperature within the work environment by utilizing plants to shade the area from the sun, all while ensuring proper ventilation. By doing so, it effectively minimizes the risk of heatstroke among workers. Moreover, the design contributes to resource conservation in greening initiatives by repurposing discarded coconut fiber, which replaces plastic pots as planting containers.
The ReShade project is an amazing and brilliant idea to care for workers and the city itself. While providing shade for workers operating in the scaffolds, it beautifies the city and lowers the temperature in the surroundings, thanks to the smart use of an organic system of coconut fibers, plants and harvested rainwater. Great for humans and the environment!
