Cities in Bulgaria are being built at a rapid pace, and nature within them is becoming increasingly scarce. Green roofs bring the lost nature back onto the buildings, but the currently available solutions for greening already constructed roofs with a tile structure are difficult to implement. Dariy has an innovation as a solution! Dariy Krastev is a Master Engineer in Automotive Engineering, a graduate of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany. In Germany, green roofs and building greenery have long been an integral part of construction.
This inspired him to return to Bulgaria and, together with his parents, establish the first Bulgarian company specializing in cultivating succulent turf and installing green roofs. Driven by the vision of bringing nature closer to our homes, they have been promoting the benefits of green roofs to diverse audiences in Bulgaria for over eight years.
The two key aspects of his life—engineering and green roofs—combine to create his invention: the first-of-its-kind green tile, GREЙNA tile.
Dariy believes that sustainable architecture is not just a trend but a necessity. He strives to pass this vision on to his family and his young son, encouraging a deeper connection between people and nature.
