the p is green

the p is green by AlgisBerziunas from lithuania

designer's own words:

The start of discussions for the design idea came from the fact that the CITY is a nature-like organism, so it must organically follow the principals of its organization.
If a branch has blossoms for spreading the seeds, naturally streets must have a similar parking system development.

Humans who create a city also need enough of space: the streets should not be crowded by cars, at the same time they should have easily reachable points for leaving or taking their own transportation means.
Decentralization of parking system into many smaller spots is one of the main solutions of green P designs.

Another application is that green P easily fills still unused urban spaces like spaces under over roads and new design bridges.

The concept also includes a combined private and public parking system: for guests the parking is reachable from outside, for private users there is a possibility to enter and leave the parking from the building. This helps to save the space for the building infrastructure and creates motivation for private buildings- or office users to establish green P spots.

The system also includes a lightening system which can replace or supplement ordinary road lights by charging them by sun batteries installed on green P roof during the day.
