Prototypes for urban/vertical farms have been developed, considering projected urban growth.

The London-based recruitment agency has dedicated 20% of their 115,000 square foot office to growing fresh vegetables.

The gardens utilize a mix of hydroponic and soil-based farming and require very specific climate control within the building.

This often means keeping these spaces warmer than is considered comfortable for office spaces and is arguably the building’s greatest downfall.

Different kinds of plants are growing in the interior of the office. Not just utilizing fresh plants but vertical farming is a part of the design strategy of the office. The employees' braking areas are totally surrounded by plants that are providing fresh air.

The food grown in the office isn’t meant to just feed the employees. We are hoping that this new type of office will inspire the young urbanites to reconsider agriculture and possibly even to reinvigorate rural areas.
