This building proposal acts as catalyst for well-being by engaging in collective activities related to a circular food economy and brings together spaces for urban farming, learning, cooking consumption and recreation under one single roof. A new entrance improves the connection to Walthamstow wetlands and the project explores the spatial potential for a closer integration between spaces for production and spaces for growing and biodiversity. Project by year 3 architecture student Safiya Baazi for a site at Blackhorse Lane in Waltham Forest working with Unit A's 2023-24 theme of Productive City by exploring alternative approaches to spatial production and city-making through strategies promoting a local circular economy.
