Ned Allam of Array International Architects who also served on The Ontario Association of Architects Steering Committee on the Environment from 1992 to 1997, says ,

"We have to think about environment sustainability, air and water quality and design healthy buildings right at the outset.

ArrayEcoGen will seek to find new ways to address these needs and incorporate the lessons of nature in future design."

Wolfgang Amelung participated in Sustainable Pickering Day with Arrray Architects. A Breathing Wall System is to be built in a new Environmentally Progressive and Sustainable High Rise designed by Ned Allam.

With Genetron System's beautiful indoor rainforests, you are creating indoors what nature does best outdoors ‑ purifying and regenerating your living environment.

Genetron's Breathing Wall™ was developed to purify indoor air. Clean waters from our high order ecosystem flow over the lava rock Breathing Wall™ and room air is passed through this wall. Joined to a home or office heating/ventilation system the "Breathing Wall™ Ecosystem" actively purifies the air and creates a kind of 'Living Water™' as well .

"Our 'Breathing Wall™ 'Living Wall™', complete with orchids, bromeliads and airplants, becomes a passive air purification system when linked to the ecosystem, says Wolfgang Amelung of Genetron Systems." Misters rain down on the planted areas adding welcome humidity.

"Hydroponic Planters" act as satellites, making it possible to water all your plants with the clean system water. Umbilical water lines can be used to connect these planters to the main ecosystem creating connective veins pulsating living waters throughout your home. Even the fish in the top photo are not fed other than through the ecology of the system."

Genetron Systems patented design is very successful in sustaining a high order ecosystem with characteristic clean, pathogen and algae‑free water. They have created the optimal science for cleaning water and air.

Genetron Systems are a science in harmony with nature. In the past bio experiments that tried to control nature rapidly fell apart.

The art of sustainablility in the future will be practical ‑ an expression of what is functional and what really works. Nature demonstrates beauty, functionaliy and sustainablility.

Genetron Systems seeks to emulate nature and its ultimate expression of inter‑connectivity of everything in our world.

Natural solutions to indoor air quality

Imagine how you feel when you go out into nature and breath fresh air. Your whole body feels better, relaxed and invigorated.

Today's environmental and sustainablility concerns are foremost in people's minds. We have all been in a places where we found it hard to breath. Many high rise office buildings in cities are actually 'sick buildings' and in general, indoor air quality has seriously declined.

Now through the work of pioneer ecological engineer, Wolfgang Amelung of Genetron Systems, in Toronto, Canada; the science of nature and its air cleaning processes are now available in indoor rain forest eco systems, called Breathing Walls™ or Living Walls™ that can be built inside both large buildings and homes.

Genetron Systems partnered with Array International Architects in Toronto to create a clean air system and renovation system for a building at The University of Toronto in order to make it a healthier building.
