22 August 2012: We use this blog to tell you about our tall building studio, but occasionally, there is a scheme in the news that is so relevant or compelling, we cannot resist telling you about it. This is remarkable, not just because of the design but because it is actually being BUILT! and should be operating actively in early 2013!

"The Linkoping urban greenhouse, as designed by architectural firm Plantagon, will be a conical glass building that uses an extensive internal conveyor belt-style system to move potted plants from seeding, growing and harvesting stations.
As the plants move under the glazed walls and ceilings their pots will be rotated to give the fruit and vegetables optimal exposure to available sunlight.
It's more than just a tall greenhouse."
