I just stumbled across an article on the Musagetes (the UW architecture library) blog and it's got me thinking about the amount of waste that is produced by the food industry each year. Now I KNOW that this thesis is about food distribution and the inefficiencies involved in getting our food from the field to the table, but I wonder... is there some way that I can include a 'waste not, want not' system into the design component of my thesis?
And on that note; I am itching to get down and dirty with the design of my thesis. It seems like every time I start, something else pops up... and now I have lots of case studies, written pages, more diagrams than appendages and even a demographic analysis of the site... but no design.
June is looking closer than ever.

ReplyDeletei am an architecture student in ireland, working on my final year thesis. My topic is how growing food in the city can create a more resilient city. I was wondering if you wouldnt mind sending a copy of your thesis, obviously i would cite anything if i quoted your work. In return i could send you anything that would be useful in terms of resources and information surrounding the topic. hopefully you think this might be a good idea? anyway my email address is tadhg.nihill@gmail.com i will look forward to your reply and good work with the blog, hope the project is going well!
