How can architecture reshape the production of livestock protein through an intensive, vertically organised farming system? The proposal combines stacked grazing platforms with hydroponic fodder production to dramatically reduce land requirements while maintaining productivity comparable to conventional pastoral systems.
By concentrating the full lifecycle of livestock production within a compact architectural form, the project challenges the spatial inefficiencies and environmental impacts of feedlot farming models. In doing so, it positions architecture as an active framework for rethinking how protein is produced in a resource constrained future.
