PARENT-CHILD FARM

Lack of communication between parents and children is a problem that plagues many Chinese families. Although parents spend a lot of time with their children, it is difficult to generate effective communication. The project therefore aims to provide a space where interaction and communication can be stimulated in an attempt to break down negative relationships. Agricultural activities are known to be very attractive to Chinese people and are a highly interactive activity. So the project was proposed as a family farm community centre. In order to bring citizens closer to the farming life, the project is not only about farming, but also includes educational workshops and a greenhouse, where parents and children have the opportunity to learn and do farming together, strengthening their communication with each other in an interactive process. The project also serves the surrounding community with a market that provides fresh vegetables and produce to the neighbourhood.

Design Concept

The importance of agriculture is well known, but in the city people are still disconnected from it, and citizens' contact with agriculture is limited to the dining table. The project seeks to bring citizens closer to agriculture and amplify their perception of it

The survey found that there is a general lack of communication between parents and children in Chinese families. Even when they are in the same space, communication between parents and children is often negative. It is important to find ways to create positive interactions between parents and children.
