'The Green Dip' offers ways to reintroduce nature into our cities, by critically examining architectural strategies and green solutions. The research group The Why Factory (Delft University of Technology) has produced a series of visualizations of various greened cities (Hong Kong, São Paulo, Dubai and many more). These visualizations respond to the analysis and calculations made for each of the biomes in which the cities are located. The visualizations are accompanied by sets of objective data, from the amount of oxygen that can be produced, via the gallons of water than can be stored, to the number of birds that can be provided with a habitat.
