Some farm diagrams from my research on urban farming in Havana, Cuba. Ill be posting a good bit more on this at a later date.

Thank you Joshua Prince-Ramus...

"Architecture for the last 100 years has had this dichotomy where you're either a formalist or a functionalist, but that's bullshit. You should be both and exceed both, even if you're sometimes predominantly one or the other."

-Joshua Prince-Ramus (REX Architects) in an interview with Forbes (full article here)



If only I could show this to some of the professors around here without getting blacklisted for good...

CMU Study

Site Zoom & Material Analysis

Further analysis on my zoomed in site, the 4-unit minicluster that I will be designing from here on out. Also, some material studies on how to hybridize elements or materials for greater use or effect.
