What Cheer Flower Farm

Project Type: Flower Farm
Date Completed: Fall 2023
Location: Olneyville, RI
Advisor: Ryan McCaffrey
Collaborators: Inwoo Lee + Lily Gucfa

...Is an organization that grows, rescues and donates over 100,000 flowers annually. The flowers are donated via a network of local nonprofits, community groups, and organizations serving Rhode Islanders at risk including hospitals, senior services, recovery centers, shelters, hospices and food pantries.

This design proposal for the farm’s expansion emphasizes how intricate details enhance design thinking and add depth to architecture. The goal is to unify diverse architectural elements, balancing essential aspects of a building’s lifecycle. Challenges include integrating technical systems, adhering to codes, and expressing a tectonic language. The project navigates the articulation of architectural concepts while adhering to passive house standards and addressing life safety regulations, ecological trade-offs, and the practical constructibility of materials.
