Via ArchDaily, this study by MVRDV, The Why Factory and Stroom Den Haag looks at urban farming in the relationship to global food supplies. As David Basulto adds: "...urban farming goes more in the direction of the last phrase of the video: “could it (urban farming) help bringing some agriculture into the cities to bring us closer to our food again?”.

A unique opportunity to tap into one of the most creative minds in modern landscape architecture representation, Brad Cantrell, via an online webinar/interview on Land8Lounge conducted by Drew Maifield of The LANDWIRE. 
Cantrell is author of Digital Drawing for Landscape Architecture (Published by Wiley, 2010) which promises to be the most complete resource of landscape related techniques captured to date. A must read for anyone looking to get the most out of the digital tools in representing design solutions. As Maifield mentions: "...imagine being able to listen in and hang with the expert who wrote the book on this pivotal topic! "
The event is happening February 18th, 2010 at 8pm CST, so be sure to sign up today, and also check out more of Brad's work via his portfolio on Land8.
