The Green Mesh is a digitally-developed trellis supporting climbing plants, forming a green ceiling in a café in Frankfurt am Main.

Its geometry was generated through a digital form-finding process, adapting to the site environment by avoiding existing elements such as columns, lighting fixtures, air-conditioning units, and refrigerators. The process produced a precise map of all segment lengths, enabling accurate reproduction of the structure in the selected material, chosen for its specific elastic properties.
