Scandinavian houses with an overgrown roof, in which you want to settle immediately

Scandinavians take their green roofs very seriously. This tradition in Scandinavia has been around for a long time and it seems that it is not going to die. They even have a competition every year for the best green roof project, which is organized by the Green Roof Association of Scandinavia! And there's a reason why they like green-roofed houses so much.: this is not only a home decoration, but also great benefits from a social, environmental and financial point of view. A roof with plants or a lawn absorbs rainwater, reduces the cost of heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, increases insulation and is more durable. These are just some of the advantages of such a roof.
