But I'm not up to date on the state of the art, and I'm curious to know what's being done now, and where things are going.Green roofs are really big right now. The biggest challenge there is picking out the right kind of vegetation for a rooftop environment, i.e. shallow roots and extreme weather resistance. Rain screens are making a come-back too. The really exciting stuff for me is in engineered materials, stronger lighter and more wear-resistant.
