The Greenway

The Greenway is a blueprint for a next-generation bioshelter developed by Earle Barnhart and Hilde Maingay. Its eco-architecture includes housing, a close connection to outdoor agriculture, and recycling of food nutrients, all designed at a community scale. It is a realizable vision of a sustainable habitat for humans on this planet.

Hilde, Earle, and Lily have collaborated on several animations that envision The Greenway.

 

Follow the Water

There is a world in which humans integrate into the water-nutrient cycle. Welcome to Greenway, a vision of an ecological neighborhood, where basic needs – food, water, shelter, transport, communications – are provided in ecologically sustainable ways with renewable energy. It’s a network of homes, greenhouses, garden, and businesses, connected by sheltered corridors. Housing is integrated with agriculture. Biology is integrated with technology. People are integrated with the cycles of the Earth.

 

More videos about the Greenway’s systems are in development, plus videos about techniques anyone can use to live more sustainably.
