Paragon transforms city living with Australia’s first indoor urban forest within a stunning mixed-use building with a 48-level residential tower in Melbourne’s CBD.

Fytogreen designed, constructed and continue to maintain the striking “urban forest”, working in conjunction with landscape designer Paul Bangay to create a lush green escape high above Melbourne’s bustling city streets.

Level 5 - Features Fytogreen’s fire compliant green wall systems, roof gardens, water reservoir planters and a striking water feature incorporated into the vertical garden. Fytogreens tree anchors were also utilized to secure the Ficus Benjamina.

Level 6 – Continues with additional FC_FytoFelt green walls, cascading planter boxes and ballastroof garden.

Level 7 – Mirrors level 6 with FC_FytoFelt green walls and cascading planter boxes. In addition it also houses an indoor 2m Ficus Benjonea feature tree inserted into the decking of the spa level.
