Urban farming can help in many ways in creating public spaces with an engaging environment. Restaurants and shops can be opened that sell the locally grown crops, tours and workshops can be given through the urban farms and Other products like compost, DIY kits and biodegradable materials can also be sold. To enhance the individual urban farming functions, in- and outputs from each farm can be connected to create circular flows within the system. These flows ensure that less outside materials are needed in the farm, and improve efficiency and cost effectiveness in certain circumstances. Table 6.2 in the appendix gives a rough estimation on how big the flows need to be in order to sustain the urban farm. Based on the findings we can conclude that different function clusters like, a production centered function, a social interactivity centered function and a public farming centered function can be created and that existing restaurants and canteens can be integrated within the system.

Supermetabolism
The influence of Metabolism on the 20th century Superdutch
In this thesis we study the influence Metabolism had on Superdutch and its architects. After analysing the two movements we learn that Superdutch is more diverse than expected, and is not specifically a movement, but more so a group of different architects with different beliefs that are labelled as a group. The two movements did however have a lot in common in the way they were created and the beliefs they had. Both consist of a group of younger architects that try to tackle problems in their countries like the lack of space and the stagnation of architecture. After this we came to the conclusion that Metabolism did not specifically have any influence on Superdutch but more so on the individual architects within this group. Take MVRDV for example, this architectural firm has a lot of overlap with Metabolism in its beliefs and standpoints, and their architecture therefore also tries to tackle some of the same problems. This overlap can also be seen in their architecture, which often has a lot in common with Metabolist architecture. But not all Superdutch architects have taken this inspiration and influence from Metabolism.
