It’s obviously not a dragonfly wing. It’s obviously not feasible. But it’s obviously gorgeous.

Recycle your bio-waste articles! Translation: too many bs stories, not enough common sense. Even a plumber knows payday is on Friday, bio-waste flows downhill! lol

I reckon I must’ve seen this at least once a year on this site – I appreciate the enthusiasm, but what’s the point if NYC is never going to build it?

these undergrad projects are a bit tiresome in their lack of attention to reality. all of the concepts are wonderful, but i’m not sure that it is even possible to build such a structure capable of withstanding even a clam wind..

Living, working, and growing food at smog level might not be the best idea after all.

Um… Do the designers know what a dragonly wing looks like? Have they ever seen a dragonly wing? Butterfly, maybe, but this looks nothing like a dragonly wing. Seriously. Not at all.

Wow what a great project that will feed people and it will be a tourist attraction too!

For an example of a vertical crop system that’s growing now, check out http://blog.valcent.net/
Valcent is currently underway on its pilot project growing food vertically for a U.K Zoo!
