forms, including parks, gardens, and green roofs. These spaces are important for a number of
reasons, including providing visual and physical relief from the built environment, reducing
the heat island effect, improving air quality, and supporting biodiversity. Green spaces can
also serve as gathering places for communities and can contribute to a sense of well-being
and connection with nature. As such, they are increasingly recognized as an essential element
of sustainable design and urban planning.
