Hi everyone!
I’m Aimie, a 3rd year architecture student doing a conceptual project focused around creating a honey farm. The site is based in Twickenham, Richmond and is directly next to the River Thames. I am trying to gain as much information as possible regarding the spaces required for beekeeping on a large scale.
currently I believe the farm would need enough space for 100+ hives, PPE storage, an uncapping/extractor room, somewhere to separate the wax and honey and a produce storage room. In addition to this there would be the standard provisions in places of work (toilets, kitchenette etc.) I’m in the early stages of spatial studies for my project and am hoping to inform this with as much research as possible.
So I’m turning to the experts… if you could design your ‘dream’ (doesn’t have to be 100% realistic) beekeeping set up, what spaces would you require? How many m2 would you be after in each space?
Any responses would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for accepting me![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
