Dear designer,
As you probably already know, we have too many mouths to feed in this world. So how do we continue feeding the ever-growing Spaceship Earth and what spatial consequences will this have? Will we have farming skyscrapers? Will we have industrial areas where meat is being grown in labs? Or will there be chickens on the moon?
The world needs your vision on this. On April 22nd we welcome you in the Evoluon to design a solution. You have 24 hours. The best solution will be rewarded with a €500,- prize.
