Abstract
‘Green’ or ‘plant material’ has become commonplace in contemporary architectural design, as it serves to demonstrate a certain ‘ecological awareness.’ However, using vegetation as a symbol only implies its instrumentalization, that is, to ‘objectify’ living beings of another species. From this dilemma, the following text proposes a new way to incorporate vegetation into design: instead of adding green, design with it.
