| Abstract | This paper reviews existing urban farms and studies the opportunity to integrate agriculture into the high rise building in city of Bangkok. The consumption behaviors of 300 consumers aged between 26-36 years old who work in city of Bangkok are collected with questionnaires. The design methodology is applied in two high rise buildings and the payback period of the farm projects in the proposed buildings are analyzed. The result shows consumers who have healthy life styles prefer consuming fresh fruits and vegetables together with meats but do not like growing plants for consuming by themselves. Two mixedused residential buildings with supermarket integrated vegetables farms are designed in two locations of Bangkok. The farm products are found adequate for residences and for selling. The payback period of the agricultural farms are within five years. |
