The compost-heated greenhouse was my self-negotiated thesis project for my BA Product and Furniture Design course. As the name implies, the Compost Heated Greenhouse is a greenhouse with an integrated Compost Heat Recovery System (CHRS). The integrated CHRS provides the plants in the greenhouse with vital nutrients and conditions which promote plant growth, enabling the user to extend the growing season of plants into the winter months. Furthermore, with the ability to make finished compost, the integration of a CHRS creates a circular food system.
