Bsp Security Plant Complex is a proposed public building planned for New Clark City, Philippines. The complex offers a highly secure, flexible and adaptable floor area that can be adjusted as production technology improves. A living facade presents more than 250 endemic Philippine trees together with tropical plants. The planted facade shields the building from direct sun, reduces thermal heat gain and supports air ventilation. Water moats and sloping towers recall the mountainous tropical archipelago and its biodiversity.
