Permaculture is a system of agricultural and social design principles centred around simulating or directly utilizing the patterns and features observed in natural ecosystems. The following drawings have been produced by a group of architecture students from Politecnico di Milano during the workshop "The Living Museum", in order to describe the process of designing and cultivating a corn and potatoes orchard with this system.
Recently created as a new branch of "TerraViva", this specific section proposes a series of design competitions in line with the topics addressed by our workshops and mainly directed to architecture students, new graduates and young designers.
