David Brenner had the privilege of returning to our alma mater to contribute a living wall as a part of the renovation of Cal Poly’s state of the art plant conservatory. The living wall sits on a corner, allowing for 460 square feet of living wall space and features 12 species of plants forming a vibrantly colorful palette across two faces. This living wall was designed to be loud and attract people.

“We wanted to create a beacon of life to celebrate a building that was once tucked away and often overlooked, but was so instrumental to the foundation of Habitat Horticulture and the environmental vision that led us to where we are now.” says David Brenner, founder and principal of Habitat Horticulture.
