But wait... there is more to be done!

A to do list, that is not all of it.


Image of designs and idea generation that did not make the cut or were not possible in our time frame.



The farm wants us to design and build them a new entrance gate to the medieval medicinal garden, as you can see it is poor shape using unstable construction methods.



Here is our prototype of our benches using a hay bale not a straw bale and also some balls of cob for testing our cob mixture.

Here is the our second model for a proposed design of our farm project. This model is to scale and includes a proposed permeable ADA compatible brick pathway, a round stadium two tier seating system made out of gabion backets. Also proposed were for us to create an earthbag planter bed aswell as an additional secluded seating area made out of gabion baskets.
