Officefarm

'New possibilities through new architecture'

Featured in Practical Hydroponics & Greenhouses Magazine, Issue 106, May/June 2009. The concept behind the OfficeFarm building was to look at new ways of bringing agriculture back into the urban environment. By combining hydroponic farming and commercial office programs the building represents an efficient use of space and resources.
By combining these programs to create a new working environment a new working model is also made possible. A working model whereby the office workers within the building also care for the crops grown there.
