Butong first delivered twelve panels to the project, but at the inauguration the mayor thought that it was too small and the project immediately became twice as big. The wall is in a gassing south position with temperatures of 50 degrees. Despite this, the vegetation has done well. After one year, the care of the wall was transferred to the park administration and is thus our only outdoor wall that we do not take care of ourselves. The architects also wanted a mineral-based plant panel to reflect the surrounding hardened surfaces. Butong was chosen for the maintained aesthetic values that our panels maintain throughout the year.
