Urban Harvester

Project description

The Urban Harvester merges farm-inspired designs with modern architecture, centered around a silo-like building for vertical farming and relaxation. Key features include a mix of traditional farm colors and high-tech materials in new residential buildings, making it a landmark. The project emphasizes sustainable living with solar energy and wooden structures for flexibility. Communal spaces enhance resident interaction, while a converted museum sauna adds vibrancy.
