I've heard that the yet to be released designs for the media centre will almost certainly have a green roof, but I can't see it working on the curved roof of this building. I don't mean to sound condescending, but you're not getting the two stories confused are you?

Sorry! That's very new, thanks for pointing it out. Not quite the roof is it (you can see what I was thinking), but that's a good idea nonetheless.

An impressive looking document as well. I'll have a proper read through later:
