Talk: Material Cultures: Regenerative Construction
Tue 21 Jan, 17:30 - 18:30
Join Oxfordshire Community Land Trust for a talk by the brilliant designers, makers and researchers Material Cultures.
Show more Material Cultures bring together design, research and strategic thinking to make meaningful progress towards a post-carbon built environment. Their approach involves examining the whole supply chain of materials used for construction projects – from their extraction and/or production through to their final use and disposal – to ensure that the way we build is not just sustainable, but as environmentally regenerative as possible. They provide design services, undertake hands-on construction and refurbishment projects, and work with public, private and third sector organisations – often in a highly participatory way.
Material Cultures are one of the architecture practices working on “The Phoenix” in Lewes, East Sussex, a sustainable neighbourhood on a former industrial site.
