Pallet Planter
The Pallet Planter project was born to provide a low cost of entry into urban farming. It provides a cheap and readily available way for anyone to get ready to grow a multitude of varieties of plants. The Pallet Planter provides three soil depths: 4, 10, and 18″ of soil for starting a plant, medium sized herbs, and large food produce. The Pallet Planter is currently undergoing rapid testing and development. Here is my process documentation.
RapidType
My studio this semester is called RapidType – and we’ve got a nice website set up to track our progress. The premise of the studio is simple: make rapid prototyped structures both economically viable and aesthetically pleasing. It’s interesting that the successful prefab structures today aren’t well designed, and the well designed structures aren’t successful. We’re investigating both of these means and we will culminate in a fully fabricated small structure. Track our progress at RapidType.net.
High Line Intervention
Also 2008, this project situates a Hotel, Gym, Cafe, and Dance Club into lower Manhattan. Prior analysis for this work includes New York Mapping.
