This Blog is about the last semester of a thesis Grad student Simeon Vialva.
This blog, titled Operation Grow Something, is my(simeon vialva)emission and detailed account of my journey of my last design semester of grad school at Pratt Institute.

To Designing a Vertical Farm Towers in dense areas of NYC. These two design studios have led me on a course directed at my thesis research of finding key solutions of designing a New York City of the Future.
