CASE (Center for Architecture Science and Ecology)
The research being conducted at CASE is worth keeping up with...
CASE and SOM Have Developed a Modular Phytoremediation Active Wall System

This is one step closer to combining biophilic theory psychologic benefits of nature in the built environment with measurable financial benefits.
