Abstract
The relevance of this study is manifested in the need to adapt architectural solutions to changing climatic conditions and anthropogenic factors. The purpose of the study was to examine modern principles in the formation of structures for the production of crop products and identify critical aspects that are crucial for optimising this process. Methods of analysis, synthesis, deduction, and induction were used to achieve this goal. The findings indicate that architectural solutions must be adapted to varying climatic conditions in order to optimise plant growth. This necessitates adjustments to temperature control, lighting, and water management systems. Specific architectural examples, including the Urban Vertical Farm of Brightfood in Shanghai and Vertical Farm Beijing, are presented as case studies to demonstrate these principles. The Urban Vertical Farm incorporates terraces with edible plants, advanced hydroponic systems, and transparent materials that maximise sunlight. Similarly, Vertical Farm Beijing integrates a closed-loop water system and efficient LED lighting to minimise energy and water consumption, thereby promoting urban food security. These examples illustrate the importance of adapting architectural designs to environmental and urban constraints. The study provided an opportunity to understand the importance of architectural and engineering solutions in crop production, which can lead to the development of more efficient and sustainable plant-growing systems, which in turn can increase the productivity and quality of agricultural products
