Melding of Blue Roofs and Green Roofs:


A "blue roof" is an urban oasis --- a waterplay space that usually also provides a sea of solar energy cooled by water runoff from the waterplay.

Blue roofs combine sun, wind, and rain, to to capture water runoff, and use it for showering, cooling off (building as well as occupants), as well as solar energy.
