Agro-Terra

Project details

Programme
Unit Unit 7
Year 4

The project aims to bridge the community's needs with the site's environment and address the ongoing climate change crisis. The building serves as a miniature masterplan, incorporating key elements from the larger vision. It is strategically positioned at the connection points between the allotment and soil storage areas, emphasising the significance of soil for biodiversity and human life. Phytomining techniques are employed to remediate the soil contaminated with heavy metals. Although construction and material usage result in high carbon emissions, the project explores sustainable earthen construction methods. With urbanisation and population growth on the horizon, the development of environmentally-friendly agricultural practices becomes increasingly vital. Agroterra, a research centre, focuses on agricultural and construction techniques while involving the community in the research aspects of the masterplan. The project aims to address both the needs of the local community and environmental sustainability.
