The contrast between the high rise buildings; with their mostly geometric shapes, and the organic form of the greenery was visible even in the idea of a skyscraper. Yet the realizations and recent projects show emerging interest and the link between them. To better understand the developing function of the greenery in the context of a skyscraper, both literature and case studies are conducted. The aim is to relate the location and type of the green structures to the function that it performs. The study examines the multiple functions of green structures and their influence on a building’s interior and its surroundings. The investigation shows that the role of green spaces is now more appreciated, and as a result, greenery is being utilized to an increasing extent. Inquiries into futuristic, albeit often unrealized projects highlight that not every location nor every merit of green structures is used. The available evidence shows that the function of greenery in the context of the skyscraper has changed together with its meaning to the people. It can serve multiple functions in various locations, making the megastructure an improved place for its users. Although, only some of them are recognisably efficient in regards to the scale of the building itself.
