The use of rainwater for watering greenery allows to reduce its consumption, and thanks to photovoltaic panels the share of green energy in the project is increased. In the office architecture, we will also find greenery – there will be a lot of natural vegetation and vivid green walls. I am convinced that the professionalism and experience of White Star Real Estate guarantee every detail of the office and will make employees use it with pleasure” – adds Tomasz Wątor.
