The Green Dip @ The Green Factory

Abstract

The Green Factory was an exhibition by The Why Factory, presented at the O2 Museum in Hangzhou, China in 2023. It envisioned urban futures seamlessly integrated with lush plant life, exploring the potential of green urbanism. The exhibition showcased The Why Factory’s research from "The Green Dip", which investigates the systemic integration of vegetation into cities. A key feature of the exhibition was "The Greenmaker," a conceptual tool that provided guidelines for incorporating greenery into various building surfaces, adapted to different climatic conditions. The museum itself was turned into a green public space, extending beyond the building and accessible at all hours.
