Integrating urban agriculture into residential building designs to address urban food deserts: A sustainable solution for food security
Imagine a future where residential buildings not only shelter citizens but also nourish them. This presentation unveils the potential of integrating urban agriculture into residential designs to combat food deserts, enhance food security, and foster sustainable communities. Through a cutting-edge mixed-methods approach, this study explores the symbiotic relationship between building design, urban agriculture, and community engagement. By analyzing case studies, conducting expert interviews, and surveying residents, we uncover the keys to successful integration. Our findings reveal a transformative model for urban food systems, where residential buildings become hubs for sustainable food production, community building, and environmental stewardship. Join us in revolutionizing the urban food landscape and redefining the future of edible architecture and food security for future generations.

Abstract

Imagine a future where residential buildings not only shelter citizens but also nourish them. This presentation unveils the potential of integrating urban agriculture into residential designs to combat food deserts, enhance food security, and foster sustainable communities. Through a cutting-edge mixed-methods approach, this study explores the symbiotic relationship between building design, urban agriculture, and community engagement. By analyzing case studies, conducting expert interviews, and surveying residents, we uncover the keys to successful integration. Our findings reveal a transformative model for urban food systems, where residential buildings become hubs for sustainable food production, community building, and environmental stewardship. Join us in revolutionizing the urban food landscape and redefining the future of edible architecture and food security for future generations.
