FARM-X.
Vertical Urban Farm. Feasibility Study.
Farm-X is a modular vertical farm concept that shifts the historical dichotomy between production and food consumption. It grows up to 5t / day of fresh food in 1000 Sqm using specific hydroponic farming techniques in a fully controlled environment to maximize the productivity of leaf and fruit vegetables.
Farm-X is conceived as a device for the production of food and the city itself. Farm-X is a reactivation of abandoned warehouses plots. It is designed to operate as catalysts for urban reactivation, providing employment and exchange energy and services within any urban development complex.

HARVESTING STATION. Community Gardening Micro Pavilion.
The device has been designed to activate the interstitial spaces of the city – supermarkets, bus stops, playgrounds – and turns them into productive locations. It can grow up to 200 plants in four square meters by keeping them protected from animals and the city's polluted air. The greenhouse is conceived in a wood framework structure realized with basic timber laths and plexiglass.
HEDRON.
Fish From the Sky With Diamonds. Geodesic Hydroponic - Aquaponic Farm.
Hedron is an aquaponic rooftop greenhouse designed to redistribute the concentrated load to a broader surface allowing its installation on any flat rooftop. Its natural cooling system is designed to filter the polluted air by preventing exposure of the harvest to it. The greenhouse estimated to produce up to ten kilograms of fresh crops a day.
MALTHUS.
A Meal a Day. Aquaponic Home Device.
Malthus is an in-home aquaponics unit designed for the next generation kitchen or living room. It grows one meal a day: a portion of fish and a side salad.
