Welcome to a UTRI TransformationTalk on urban farming in a northern climate thorugh greenhouse extensions.
At 64° N latitude, greenhouse extensions can boost local food production and reduce resource consumption, aiming to transform residents and buildings into producers through passive architectural solutions. This and more have been investigated in the research project Designing Cycles at 64° - Interior Urban Landscapes and the Water-Energy-Food Nexus.
Speakers are:
Cornelia Redeker, Professor and Head of departmentat at Umeå School of Architecture
