Thanks to the recently developing technology and building material science, the roof surface is turning from a building element that consumes energy into a building component that contributes to the ecosystem.
While roofs or car parks are normally idle and unused building elements that absorb heat, with the sustainable use of green roofs, they have begun to become a unit that provides living spaces outside the building and can also be used as an activity area.
