This design/build workshop explores the processes of precast modular building technology as it relates to an expanding concept of Horticultural Building Systems. For the purpose of this studio, Horticultural Building Systems are defined as the instance where vegetation and an architectural/tectonic system exist in a mutually defined and intentionally designed relationship that supports plant growth and an architectonic concept.

Block Pocket?
A metal addition that fits over a CMU creating a space for soil and plant growth.
14 have been made: 13 out a variety of thicknesses of aluminum, and one of copper. A few of the mirror image have been made to play with the design on the wall that'll be built next week!
