OUR FIRST VIDEO BLOG UPDATE
THE NEW AQUAPINI DESIGN UPDATE
Through ongoing consultation and design evolution with Avery Ellis (Aquaponics Specialist and owner/operator of Integrated Aquaponics), we were finally ready to get Douglas Simms Stenhouse (Architect and Water Color Artist) what he needed to produce the following design and plans. Evolutions that are new to this drawing include:
- A more efficient roof design for water collection, reducing materials needs, and increased structural integrity.
- Addition of terraced North and West walls that increase growing space and reduce retaining wall needs and cost.
- Moving the fish pond to the East end to improve ease of traffic flow and harvesting on the West end
- A direct access drive ramp that eliminates the corner we had before and will make removal of harvested food much easier
- Ramps instead of stairs to access the filtration system
- Improved filtration area design that saves space
