In-Progress Illustration of Farming System
My contribution to this exhibit is in two parts - the first is an info graphic of the Grange's rooftop system, while the second is a rendering of a potential RIF hub/healing space.
I'm midway through the diagram, the latest version of which you will see below. My goal for this graphic is to make it detailed enough for potential clients, yet simple enough that even the youngest visitors to the farm could understand it.
Things that will be added in my next iteration: a color scheme that distinguishes each material; text that labels and describes each material; plants on top of the dirt mounds; a background (potentially some sort of image of the farm)
Let me know if you have any suggestions on what I've already done or plan to do!
Hi Nick, Thanks for sharing. Is this a schematic of a larger conceptual proposal? Or nuts/bolts presentation? Have you thought about creating a conceptual thread between the physicality of a rooftop/farming system, and the experience of a refugee through design? Some architects of interest?:
