Geometric Gardening: Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District by OutstandingRice

Last crawled date: 3 years ago
Gardening is extremely fun and practical topic. With the geometric garden planters designed here, a classroom or learning/makerspace can teach, not only about math and unique geometric shapes, but also about gardening/plant life as well. A double-wammy!
This project is a favorite for its ability to bring together various STEAM topics!
Included are: a hexagonal, spherical, and hyperbolic planters! Yay!
Gardening, similar to 3D printing, can be used for experiential learning and community engagement -especially when we use gardening to assist with feeding communities throughout our area or region!
All were designed in-house at the Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District:
The Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District is home to a wonderful makerspace, known as The Studio, that is open to all; for this challenge, library staff banded together with ideas and possible entries for this competition. We have observed many schools and individuals entering Thingiverse's competitions, but have yet to see a library...until now! Many of these ideas and designs were inspired for our makerspace and remodeled youth department
More about the Library District and The Studio:
The Winnetka-Northfield Public Library District is a community resource for the advancement of knowledge, and a provider of innovative and informative cultural enrichment for all ages.
The Studio is made possible by a generous gift given to the Library from the Staffileno Family, in order that the library create a space to honor the memory of Constance E. Staffileno. The Studio was created to embody Mrs. Staffileno’s love for art and art education, and to inspire generations of innovators and art enthusiasts.Located in the lower level of the Winnetka Library, The Studio features the latest technology and equipment, such as 3D printers, Adobe Creative Cloud software and a laser engraver, as well as classic art mediums like paint and canvas, to inspire and educate a community of artistic makers and creators.
