Two themes that Patrick Blancs uses when doing his works is the way he integrates nature into urban areas. The way he does this is creating his known artworks, known as vertical gardens, He designs and then installs different types of plants usually on the exteriors of buildings, and thus transforming concrete walls into colorful ecosystems. Another theme that Blanc does is the many different types of plants in his artwork thus increasing the biodiversity. The reason he has so much biodiversity in these vertical garden is a way of creating a ecologically rich, vibrant, and colorful environment.

This school had a plan in 2007 when they proposed to build a three-story assembly and classroom wing with an idea of creating the entire side of the wall is full of plants. Blanc and two other designers worked on this project, this is made up of thousands of plants from different areas and finally completed it in 2011 . Students also end up studying the plants on the wall as a living lab for many subjects such as botany, chemistry, and physics.

This “cube” of orchids is four walls of plants with doorways and windows that was created in New York Botanical Garden and was available to see between March 3 – April 22, 2012. When someone steps outside of the little “cube” they will be hit with many different types and colors of orchids. In the inside of the “cube” people will be treated with many of Blanc’s drawings and images that reflect the diversity of plants that sparked his creative flair for growing plants in urban areas.

The Caixa Forum Museum is a modern art gallery and also a refurbished power station. This museum is in the heart of Madrid’s culture district. This wall was made by Patrick Blanc in 2001, and is said to have between 15,000-17,000 plants and nearly 300 different species picked out to keep in mind the very hot summers and cold winters in Madrid.
