Where the fuck are the tree roots supposed to go, into the first floor ducting? This is such slap-together tech utopianist masturbation. And I'm someone who loves buildings that are designed to be covered in plant life. I'm Mr Fucking Solarpunk over here. But the architects sure aren't, and I doubt they'll understand the needs or benefits of whichever plant species they end up using, or choose them based on anything but aesthetics, and that's how you get a neglected bullshit garden that eventually just gets ripped out and replaced with a boring concrete terrace containing the same two coffee and snack places that grow from spores on boring concrete terraces across the world.

The executive offices get the trees and the workers have to deal with massive root systems obstructing their cubicles.
