Here are a few renderings of a new Vertical Farm design that would have a glass shell (not yet rendered) with an outside structure to support the inside hydroponic facilities. These are just rough design sketches – as the final is in development. The inside of this structure would house efficient LED lighting systems in the red, green, and blue spectrum’s.
These new designs will have full housing on the top and bottom of the multi-level hydroponic facilities, including a full produce shop on the ground floor. The housing is still in development. Solar systems will surround this structure and will help to power the thousands of LED lights. The pins that come out of the X structures serve to hold the outer glass that will surround this structure.
Hey Chris,
Glad to see that work here is still progressing. Stuff like this is truly innovative and I think it’s going to drive real progress in meeting the needs for foodstuffs. I’ve been following the site over at VerticalFarm.com, and I was slightly concerned that it may have dead-ended, but I’m glad to see this is still up and coming. I’m going to add you to my feed reader – this stuff is fascinating.
Best wishes for the future,
-Varun.
