Green Roofs & Vertical Gardens

Atlantis was founded in 1986 by landscape architect Humberto Urriola with the dream of creating Green Cities. In the early 1970s, Humberto developed a vision to cover cities with beautifully landscaped gardens. Hanging gardens to be incorporated into buildings, dense green roofs, and parks and gardens added to the urban landscape... Green Cities set out with the dream of being part of a new urban cycle that improves water quality, reduces polluted runoff, improves air quality, reduces the heat island effect, and improves the mental health of the public.

Atlantis, Green City Vision

Urban Temperature Regulation (Green City Natural Insulation)

The heat island effect of a city can be significantly reduced by the plants and gardens that cover it. It is possible to effectively regulate ambient temperature by increasing the amount of soil and green vegetation on green roofs, green walls, parks, and gardens; vegetation plays a crucial role in urban planning as an ideal carbon sink that absorbs and transforms sunlight, cleans the air, provides oxygen, reduces the risk of flooding, and absorbs carbon emissions, providing natural thermal insulation even during excessively hot summer months.

Healthy Living

Psychological research shows that people experience improved mental health and well-being in environments filled with plants, as opposed to oppressive, artificial settings.

Air Quality and Oxygen Production

Increased vegetation in urban landscapes can significantly improve air quality by increasing oxygen levels through the filtration and conversion of toxins, pollutants, and carbon dioxide that we are exposed to in city life.

Green Urban Transport

The city has extensive public transportation options, and many roads are underground.
