As part our latest collection A View 027.24, we’re excited to feature Farmbrots, a Barcelona-based group advocating for vertical farming. Their commitment to sustainability aligns perfectly with our values. Watch our film, featuring an exclusive interview with founder Katie Kolodinski and Farmbrots Founder, Oscar Valls.
“I hope that I’m creating awareness about issues that impact us and certain problems that we have. And I hope that the other thing I'm creating is curiosity, so that people want to ask questions and look deeper into the things that I believe are meaningful and can impact ourselves and our planet.” — Katie Kolodinski, Silk Laundry Founder & Creative Director —
"Explaining the concept of vertical construction poses a significant challenge as it's a relatively new topic. I need to communicate these issues effectively and motivate people to alter their habits by taking smaller, more manageable steps rather than attempting larger ones. Our goal is to introduce Farmbrots into urban areas to cultivate food locally and provide healthy nutrition. Through these small steps, we can initiate significant changes across society." — Oscar Valls, Co-founder of Farmbrots —
