Clearpoint Vertical Garden, Sri Lanka

Clearpoint is the first sustainable high-rise building under construction in Sri Lanka. This unique building is designed by Milroy Perera Associates. Clear point consists of 164 spacious apartments spread over 46 floors.

According to the architects, Clearpoint will “be pioneering sustainable residences in Sri Lanka, with the aim of taking urban living forward while still maintaining a balance with nature and the surrounding environment, the main focus of the apartments being to create a sentiment of ground level living. Measures will be in place to reduce energy and water consumption, including the use of solar energy for communal spaces.”

When construction of the project ends in 2016, Clearpoint will be the world’s tallest residential vertical garden.
