Rize, which stands out with its nature and greenery, is among the rapidly
urbanizing cities. Due to the rapid urbanization in recent years, central
construction has spread along the coast and expanded towards the hilly areas in
the south (Polat and Sunkar, 2017). With increasing construction, the natural and
green texture is decreasing day by day. This situation brings along ecological
problems and psychological problems on individuals. Individuals do not feel
good in the density of buildings and the lack of green space, and they need green
nature in the places where they perform their daily activities. However, the
density of buildings in urban centers does not meet the need for green space
(Osmanlıoğlu & Asilsoy, 2021).
In line with these problems, vertical garden designs that soften the structural
texture, can be used in areas with vehicle and pedestrian traffic, and support
ecology and human psychology are created. Vertical garden designs, which are
used both outdoors and indoors, provide ecological and aesthetic benefits as well
as physical and mental health benefits to people. This study aims to present the
adequacy of vertical gardens in Rize province, their positive and negative aspects,
and their impact on the city.
