Vertical Farm Institute [Vfi]

The Vertical Farm Institute (vfi) is a widely varied multidisciplinary team with specific expertises. It is embedded in an international research network all around vertical farming. Architects, engineers, plant physiologists and artists cover a wide spectrum of knowledge – essential to develop and implement new building typologies for vertical farms. Our partners support the with unique expertises regarding building- and control systems, architecture and energy, biology and plant physiology, also energy production and plant factory operators. Only the combination of a customized architecture, urban planning, resource-conserving technologies and applied plant physiology disclose the potential of vertical farms to be important elements for a sustainable food production with a promising future.
