I'm sketching another photobash, this time a scene of a solarpunk kitchen, and I wanted to make sure I didn't miss an opportunity to include something cool.
My current plan is for this one to be a kind of summer kitchen (like old farmhouses around here used to have) which doubles as a three season porch. I think a lot of the elements could fit a normal kitchen, but some will compliment each other well with this design so it might be a good place to start (and it fits my theme of reexamining older ways of doing things for opportunities to reuse).
My current list of elements:
- a Tamara Solar Kitchen -style oven cooker
-
A glass wall (and bit of roof) for growing plants and overwintering sensitive fruit trees
-
A solar hot water rig on the roof
-
Some sort of plan for compost (currently just a resealable bucket on a counter, but for those of you who know more about composting, I'm happy to build in your dream system)
-
A sitting area since people always hang out in the kitchen while you're cooking anyways.
-
Maybe a parabolic grill set up outside, we'll see if that feels redundant.
I feel like I'm missing a bunch of opportunities, so if you have any ideas, now's a great time to add stuff
Very cool idea! That seems like an easy thing to add and fermented foods are a great addition. I also like the mushroom idea and will add it to my list for future scenes!
