Vincent Callebaut Architectures
The skyscraper's facade, roof, and balconies will contain 23,000 trees and shrubs - nearly the same amount found in New York's Central Park. Inside, it will hold 40 luxury condos.
The plants are projected to absorb 130 tons of carbon dioxide per year - the equivalent of about 27 cars, lead designer Vincent Callebaut told Business Insider.
Called the Tao Zhu Yin Yuan Tower, or Agora Garden, the building topped out in July and is set to open by the fall. Take a look inside.
