ELAU welcomes the participants of Tallinn Design Night in the courtyard at the center of the festival. A connecting carpet, designed by Lylian Meister, divides the courtyard into three separate zones. A multi-purpose event space, raised garden beds and Extery pocket-park invite everyone to spend time outdoors, socialize and share thoughts on "green" topics. The yard is designed to have a lot of green elements, but the question is whether everything green is actually green in the sense that we want it to be.

In addition, GREEN YARD hosts the exhibition of landscape students' work.
