My thesis FARMS AND RECREATION deals with urban agriculture in a broad sense and is more specifically investigating how and if growing could be implemented on larger scale in cities - in this case, Stockholm. 

Considering the limited available space in cities, a way was sought to integrate cultivation without challenging other urban typologies. It eventually led to the combination of the agricultural activity - the FARM - with the one of sports - the RECREATION. The project seeks to dissolve the division between those two functions, in a way that cultivation itself can become recreation. 

It was investigated to what degree the city if Stockholm could be self-sufficient - meaning how much land is needed to grow the consumed food and how much land is available for that matter. Based on this, a farm in the district of Spånga is proposed that could contribute significantly to its inhabitants needs and further educate about the important topic of agriculture and its effects on the environment.
