We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer Peter Stasek about their original and creative Loft Farming Tower design work. Peter Stasek is an award-winning architectural designer, that makes our world a better place with their original loft farming tower works.
Peter Stasek ("PS") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work Floating Nests Loft Farming Tower. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
PS : The Loft London Farm Tower in the form of an imaginary gigantic tree in whose artificial crown two big loft formations are placed as floating nests. The vision of an unprecedented zest for life (joie de vivre) while, at the same time, utilising the entire Metropolitan logistics.
PS : The "floating nest concept" is based on a high exploitation of the air space above the respective plot of land in connection with a minimal impact on the available plot area. Even after the implementation of the project, the unrestricted panoramic view over the Thames of all neighbouring buildings will remain barrier-free to the greatest possible extent, since the air space below the treetop reaches a height of 35 metres.
PS : to develop further projects in the form of habitable trees
PS : over two years of development
PS : In addition to the sculptural effect of a building, further aspects are to be pursued here to burden the surface of the property as little as possible to relieve the environment to create a sheltered oasis for the residents in the middle of the city
PS : unfortunately not yet
PS : The artificial treetop not only assumes the supporting and development function for the floating nests, but will also be used as an important agricultural area for vertical farming. As a result, e.g. algae can be produced (for biopetroleum) within predefined organically shaped net constructions. Supply and maintenance of these agricultural facilities will be ensured by moveable bridge constructions, which are placed on rails between the rings on their inner edges. An additional effect of this artificial treetop is the creation of an oasis-like environment embracing the floating nests below a transparent green screening. This enables every resident or visitor to enjoy the entire panoramic view across London’s city centre.
PS : in the last draft phase came the renderer
PS : all cities that are overcrowded
PS : There are already many concepts for residential vertical farming houses However, the concept Floating Nests offers an important advantage the creation of the living areas in the form of floating nests in the midst of a surrounding artificial treetop
PS : The whole idea of the project was realized under the term Floating Nests The main utilization of all nest levels is defined as a mixture of vertical farming and inhabitable loft areas. On the top floors, there will be gastronomy and shops. A part of the underground parking lot, which is situated below the entire plot area, will be available for all residents and visitors of the floating nests.
PS : imagination drawings photoshop CAD-BIM 3dsMax photoshop
PS : Maybe one day humanity jumped out of the tree, so maybe the time is right to reverse that jump
PS : several companies are available for the further development of the project et al Altair, Bureau Happold
PS : the development of the construction is the biggest challenge here
PS : not really
PS : the connection between living and vertical farming
PS : as the test of the reaction
PS : Floating Nests was my first concept idea for habitable vertical farming Since then we have been working on further concepts, which however use the concept Floating Nests as a basis
