Our previous projects
Postgasse
In 2022, we equipped a single house in Postgasse from top to bottom with our irrigation system and landscaped it. The residents were thrilled.
The greenest street in Switzerland
Together with the University of Bern and partners from the public and business sectors, we have greened the entire Postgasse from 2023 to today. Over 200 plant species now make the street the most biodiverse in the city.
Gutenbergstrasse
In 2023, together with local residents and Wirz-Tanner Immobilien, we equipped all balconies in a building on Gutenbergstrasse with Boum systems to improve the quality of life of the residents.
The Boum System - briefly explained
Boum is an innovative Swiss system for anyone who wants to grow plants without much effort.✨🪻
1. Water tank with pump and smart sensors that measure the water level.
2. The pots are supplied with water via a discreet hose. Up to 12 pots and up to 20 meters away.
3. The plants draw water from a reservoir – exactly as much as they need.
4. The app tells you when you need to refill water or fertilize.
The result: Guaranteed beautiful plants, even without much time or prior knowledge.
