different players active in the field of urban agriculture, encouraging
collaboration and the exchange of knowledge and experience.

kloro-base found its first host

hans — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 10:38:53 +0000

taking the shape of a wooden geodesic dome the first seed of kloro-base has been planted. the kloro-dome digs its roots into the rooftop of the ancient belle-vue brewery alongside the canal in the center of brussels, now home of the art2work project.

as a gentle parasite kloro-dome has attached itself, and will start using its host’s otherwise wasted energy flows, such as heat and water.

once kloro-dome is turned into an operational greenhouse the seeds of what should become klorofil’s first city-made vegetables will be planted.
