for an update that is.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year have been and passed. The new year has brought new directions. I am continuing with my greenhouse design but in a different direction. My assumptions were challenged and I believe that I am on a better route now.
Previously my ideas of greenhouse had a certain supposition of size ( as in walk-in) that came from past examples of greenhouse-ness. I am examining ideas of non walk-ins ( incubators ) if you will.
I have competing themes at present, thermos-themed and fruit themed.
sketches will follow...
I am hoping to get some ETFE from one of the manufacturers (check it out on wikipedia and take a look at Project Eden in Cornwall UK)
I am also looking at using a mirrored acrylic plastic shell in order to trap light on the inside.
pictures are still a bit scarce.
I will put up sketches on my flickr soon.
another survey is in the works. I will link it soon.
thanks to all those who are helping me out.
