This is a sustainable urban drainage system, which uses vegetation as a covering for the roof, to offset the increase of drainage that is required by the new, bigger footprint of the building. This, together with rain gardens, ensured compliance with the SAB standards. Project: Elm Road, Llanharry Client: Trivallis
