2021-2022: Designin a Farm-to-Table Restaurant Based on Productive Interior Landscape (Master’s Dissertation)
Supervisor: Dr. Parastoo Eshrati
The idea of farm-to-table covers a wide range, but what is considered in this study is designing a vegetarian restaurant that produces some of the raw materials needed in the interior spaces of the restaurant. These floral elements also play a role as organizers of spaces of the restaurant. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of this issue, before starting the design process, there have been some researches in the fields of sustainability, urban agriculture, productive interior landscape, basics of restaurant design and the concept of farm-to-table. These researches were necessary in order to design a suitable relationship between these areas.
As this was my dissertation project, I had to decide on the site of my final project myself. I chose my grandparents’ old house, where I had many memories growing up. This house had unique architectural characteristics and was a great building to be redesigned as a farm-to-table restaurant.
