Trees on the move Streetlife has gained extensive experience in professional tree planters and Treetec® care systems over many years of close partnership with leading tree specialists. Its contemporary and innovative solutions continue the centuries-old tradition of the Orangery and Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam in terms of both aesthetics and techniques. The optimum care and nurture of the trees are the central elements of this development. Arguments to place trees in tree tubs are: • Shortage of sufficient underground space, as is the case with underground car parks, roof gardens, underground services, and high groundwater levels. • It is an interesting and sympathetic way of structuring and designing urban space. • It allows a great degree of flexible and multifunctional use. Movable large trees do not require tree-felling permission. • For safety reasons, important buildings can be equipped with a tree tub variant of a road block. Streetlife’s new collection includes various tree planters and other solutions for green roof terraces in addition to its products for public urban spaces. Ultra-lightweight tree planters – with or without seating options and/or sustainable decking, e.g. Streetdeck®40 – provide architects and landscape gardeners with numerous options for creating pleasant and low-maintenance recreational roof terraces. Existing trees in an urban environment also deserve more attention. CorTen steel tree grids, guards and protectors (again with or without integrated seating options and/or innovative Tree Air® spotlights) complete Streetlife’s collection to provide a full and coherent range of products.
Our ultimate example is the pomegranate tree at Slot Herrenhausen in Hanover. This plant came to North Germany from Venice in 1653, and has survived the turbulent history of this region right down to the present. This tree is in perfect health thanks to 350 years of optimal care and attention.

improved water circulation that significantly reduces the frequency with which watering and maintenance are required in the growing season.
Treetec® Basic and Treetec® Bottom Up: 1. Wall construction: thermal insulation and oxygen circulation around the root ball. 2. Optional covering using tree grids or green ground matting reduces the rate of evaporation thereby preventing soil from drying out. 3. Tree-root anchoring that prevents lopsided growth. 4. Excess water due to heavy rainfall does not accumulate but is drained off via the bottom. Treetec® Bottom Up: 5. Integrated water reservoir at the bottom. 6. The water reservoir can be filled up via an inlet. 7. Capillary columns distribute the water around the roots. In the course of time, the roots will accommodate the capillary columns and will absorb the water as needed.

Le Corbusier Water Isle The Notre Dame du Haut chapel in Ronchamp (France) – designed by the famous Franco-Swiss architect Le Corbusier – is both a source of inspiration and an artistic reference. The chapel was built between 1950 and 1955, and forms a magnificent, sculptural concrete structure that attracts both architecture and landscape lovers alike. A concave, sloping concrete roof covers the entire chapel that drains at a central point via a protruding spout. Rainwater arcs down into a modernist design isle constructed in unfinished concrete. The isle acts as an overflow basin from which water flows to surrounding areas.
Streetlife’s Seating and Tree Isles form unique landscaping elements that can be used simply and effectively to create an extremely pleasant outdoor ambience. Functionally combining seating and shrubbery. According to studies performed in Delft (Netherlands), such elements have been shown to have a significant effect on increasing the time spent in, and improving perceptions about, these outdoor spaces. Images included here give an impression of the diversity of options available.
CorTen Steel A warm and natural image is created with the application of CorTen steel in public space. CorTen can be applied untreated in outdoor spaces, so that environment-unfriendly zinc layer sand chemical paint layers can be avoided. CorTen is a low-alloy steel with a chrome, copper and nickel additive on which a dense and firm rust layer forms. The air and watertight patina is formed within six months and the steel does not rust any further. Streetlife supplies various products in CorTen. Besides the warm allure, CorTen has a number of other advantages: environment-friendly, little trouble from stickers and graffiti, lively change of colour from orange and brown, any repairs and adjustments to the CorTen construction become invisible in the course of time, due to the natural rusting process. The Angel of the North, made entirely of CorTen steel, is a landmark near Newcastle in the north of England. The CorTen construction is 20 metres tall and the wings are 54 metres wide. It was made by artist Antony Gormley.

Optional Treetec® Bottom Up: Tree roots need just as much oxygen as they do water. The walls of the Air Tubs are constructed in such a way that much more oxygen can circulate that is the case with normal wall constructions. By applying Air Tubs, one can considerably reduce the load to 500 to 600 kg/m2:

Air Tubs Air Tubs can be used to create low-maintenance, recreational roof gardens and terraces. They are extremely lightweight and their unique, patented wall construction allows more oxygen into the planter to circulate around the roots. Tree planters are available in various sizes and two heights. By positioning Air Tubs at deck patio level, it is possible to integrate seating and shrubbery simply and effectively. Their height above ground level is then between 50 and 55 cm. Their availability in two height sizes and two plinth heights make them ideal for inclusion in the ground level system that is often used for architectural terraces and roof gardens.

Conical Tubs These Conical Tree Tubs are available in various diameters and two heights. They are made of CorTen steel, thus making their lifespan almost unlimited (they will never rust through). If required, they can be finished in a RAL colour, in double-layered powdercoating: CorTen - Colour, page 21B. Streetlife advises users of these movable conical tubs to apply the Treetec® Bottom-up system. Please refer to Treetec® system specifications page. 6-7B. The Triennial, the landscape event in the leafy city of Apeldoorn, serves as a reference in this context. The corresponding plant dishes (H = 45 cm) are also available. If required, they can be equipped with a (municipal) logo.

Free forms such as the large oval Tree Isles or austere angular forms can be realized. The unique tree isles are completely stand-alone on the concrete deck or are embedded in the ground. Large trees can be anchored underground by a specially developed foundation construction. The construction does not require separate foundation. The tree specialist can equip the isle with a Treetec速 Bottom Up system.

Tree Isles - Oval Large public spaces require proportionally larger tree isles. Oval Tree Isles measure a minimum of 9 m in length and approximately 4 m in width. An outer radius of at least 3 m is required to install border seating along the short ends of an isle. R&R beams are positioned radially to prevent skateboarders from skating along seat edges. CorTen steel structures do not require their own foundation – standard depth below ground level is approximately 15 cm. A cambered fill allows trees with larger root balls to be planted. Larger trees should be securely anchored using a special-purpose sub-soil support system. Tree isles can be aesthetically

Due to the large power of attraction of the Streetlife Tree Isles, as well as their ability to be neatly integrated in the construction, it is advisable to incorporate Streetlife wastepaper bins in the Isles. These CorTen steel bins, with a 316 stainless-steel flap are partly sunken into the Isle. Accordingly, the ground level remains free of detached street furniture. The bin protrudes 45 cm above the Isle, so that the deposit height is 90 cm.
