Besides getting presentation material together for donations and the Design Review Board, I have been working on the compost. After doing some research, I developed a a scheme that is visually appealing and functional to the act of composting. Starting at the west side of the wall, the Compost System consists of three compost bins that swing upward and outward, allowing easy access to the compost. The main qualities needed to produce sufficient compost is to keep the compost bin in a relatively shaded area and allow air and moisture into the bin. The multiple bin system will provide compost to decay in different cycles to provide a steady supply. Overall, the design still needs a little work, but everyone seems excited with the concept.
