The higher we live from ground level, the more disconnected we feel from the natural environment and community. Compared with people residing away from the metropolitan area, urban dwellers lack personal and open space and may seek room to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. A new typology of sky gardens has been driving designs of residential high-rises to offer communal green spaces at high levels. Its potential benefits consist of improving human thermal comfort and urban microclimate; promoting social cohesion by serving as a community green space. It would provide a place for individuals escaping from the busy city life, improve the community integration for all age groups and improve the health and well-being of residents. In addition, it may enable and raise awareness of intimate contact with nature.

我们生活在地面上越高，我们与自然环境和社区之间的联系越不紧密。与居住在大都市区以外的人相比，城市居民缺乏个人和开放的空间，他们可能会寻求逃避城市喧嚣的空间。一种新的空中花园类型正在推动住宅高层建筑的设计，以提供高水平的公共绿地。它的潜在好处包括改善人类的热舒适性和城市微气候；通过充当社区绿色空间来促进社会凝聚力。它将为个人摆脱繁忙的城市生活提供一个场所，改善所有年龄段的社区融合，并改善居民的健康状况。此外，它可以使人们与自然亲密接触并提高认识。
