Wood cellular structure



I built a cellular structure based off of the MacPherson patent.  It was cut by hand and took almost a week, after which I realized the pieces could have been cut easier on the CNC machine.  Hindsight is always 20/20.  Next time.   Next I constructed wire cubes to fit into structure that contains the soil and plant material.



The material is composed of pebbles, perlite and sphagnum peat moss.  The plants are sedum that need minimal watering and are easy to maintain.  
Next model I plan on making will be out of corrogated plastic as the structure frame and clear acrylic to cover the open spaces.
