About this project:
The greenhouse was designed as a complimentary specialty use structure to an existing home or cabin. Off grid energy and water solutions are important for a self-reliant lifestyle however nothing is more important than the ability to grow your own food. Greenhouses enable stable plant production year round in most climates. In colder climates, winter greens can be grown through the harshest of winters. In warmer climates, the greenhouse will protect plants from pests and air borne contaminants. For this greenhouse design, we wanted to create a structure that was both functional yet also aesthetically pleasing. This is why we chose warm, durable materials to construct the frame. The greenhouse can be clad in half inch polycarbonate or glass panels. This design can be built in any length desired.
