This is a seed library. We will place it in our school's garden, and visitors will be able to leave their organic waste and seeds here.

We wanted to make it from recycled materials, so our first step was to search for and gather the necessary materials.

We thought wooden pallets would be suitable for us, so we took them apart, removed the nails, sanded them down, and prepared them for use.

We cut the material known as OSB into four pieces. Then, we used a jigsaw to cut the plywood sheets according to the measurements.


Then, for our openable lid, we used laser cutting to cut the plexiglass.

Again for the lid, we 3D-printed hinges and mounted them.

Then we started assembling the pieces. We began by building the base, nailing together all the parts we had cut for the legs.

Next, we nailed together the walls and roof of the seed bank at the top.

Finally, we screwed the base and the seed library together and added the decorations.
