Plantagon Urban Farms Will Supply Fresh Produce in Geodesic Domes
The Plantagon is dome-like structure that offers insight into the possible future of urban farming. It's being designed for downtown cores like Paris that are becoming more eco-conscious of the future and therefore undergoing plenty of green renovations.
