GoodNotes 5 takes digital note-taking to the next level with best-in-class Apple Pencil support
Placed 2nd in the 2017 WFTG Agrotech Design Contest with my entry named Wallgarden. The aim of the competition was to come up with next generation Tower Gardens that integrated Wallfarm’s LIA (Lean Intelligent Agriculture) automation system.
Wallgarden is a modular vertical hydroponic garden system that can adapt to the needs of the user. It consists of modules that can be stacked to create a wall of fresh, green plants. Visually, the simplistic and slim look of the Wallgarden takes a back seat. It acts as a way to enhance the presentation of the plants in a way that is pleasing in a home interior.
