TURNING SPACES INTO PLACES
People desire to surround themselves with nature to feel calm, escape daily stresses, connect with the natural world, and improve overall health. At Future Village, we create these environments.
Future Village, encompassing Plantabox and People Parkers, provides innovative, sustainable solutions by installing free-standing green infrastructure in urban areas lacking green spaces, all without the need for excavation.
Our nature-based approach creates an ecosystem that enhances the aesthetic appeal of local neighbourhoods and also reduces ambient air temperature and heat penetration, effectively mitigating urban heat islands.
For placemaking, local communities gain opportunities for relaxation, social interaction and physical activity which can help reduce stress, and improve mental health. For local business there is increase in patronage and revenue. For local government a flexible way to test community attitude to permanent changes in infrastructure usage.
Overall, Future Village is committed to creating sustainable solutions that benefit both people and the environment
