Alive Labs

Most green walls fail indoors due to maintenance and water demands. Alive Labs uses bio-receptive concrete and resilient moss to deliver fire-safe, low-maintenance living walls. Book a design consultation today. Designed and made in Hackney, London.

Discover a new class of living wall. Bio-receptive, carbon-negative concrete hosting moss that’s fire-safe, robust, and designed for long-term architectural use. Designed and built in Hackney, London.

By rethinking the substrate, we eliminate bulky growing media and complex piping. The result is an architecturally robust living wall that delivers: - Minimal water input and long-term stability. - Refined finishes suitable for contemporary interiors. - Lower lifetime costs with minimal intervention. Designed and built in Hackney, London.

Green walls promise a lot — but in practice, many struggle indoors. High maintenance, heavy water use, and ongoing operational complexity often turn a good idea into a liability. Alive Labs takes a different approach. We’ve developed a bio-receptive concrete system engineered to host specialist moss species. No soil. No pruning. No pest control. Moss can dry out without dying, requires dramatically less water, and is supported by non-combustible, fire-safe materials designed for long-term interior use. The result is a resilient, low-maintenance living wall with a premium finish — built to perform reliably inside real buildings, not just in renders. Book a design consultation today.

Green walls promise a lot, but indoors they often become a liability due to high maintenance and water use. Alive Labs changed the blueprint. Our system uses advanced bio-receptive concrete to host specialist moss species—eliminating common failure points like soil compaction and pruning. - Resilient biology: Moss can dry out without dying. - Low maintenance: ~75% less upkeep than typical plant walls. - Performance-led: Built to work in real buildings, not just renders.
