A vertical growth seminar Project of the Master in Advanced Architecture of IAAC developed in collaboration with the Architectural Association School of ArchitectureThrough a collaborative project including both design and fabrication, a five meter tall structure was developed. It hosts both grape vines and a closed loop hydroponic system, and consists of modular components that can be added to expand the vertical system. The site location of this project is the Valldaura Labs of the Institute of Advanced Architecture, Catalonia. The aspect of growing and harvesting grapes in the vertical as well as more urban context, drove this project and inspires further development of the concept of an urban vineyard.
