IVYBUILDINGS

Ivybuildings documents green walls, planted facades, and architecture that gives plants a visible place in the city. The archive maps projects and street finds that make urban blocks feel cooler, softer, and more alive.

Plants in cities can shelter birds and insects, shade facades, filter dust, and improve the daily experience of a street. This site keeps a local, photo-led record of those moments.

Ivy-Covered Corner House

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Ivy-Covered Corner House

A corner facade almost completely wrapped in ivy, turning a quiet Amsterdam street into a softer, greener edge. Dense climbing plants like this can shade brickwork, shelter insects, and make a compact block feel more alive.
