Agritecture

Agritecture is a field that combines agriculture and architecture to design innovative, sustainable systems for growing food within built environments. It involves creating spaces like urban farms, rooftop gardens, and vertical farms that maximize production while minimizing resource use. By integrating planting into architectural design, agritecture helps cities produce food locally, reduce transportation emissions, and promote environmental resilience. It leverages engineering, biology, and design principles to develop efficient, functional, and aesthetically pleasing food-growing systems for urban areas.
