2ha #04 explores the relationship between history and suburban development. Three essays respond to the changing processes by which suburbia has been bought, built, and sold. Laura Johnston discusses her research into the role of 19th-century ground landlords on the emerging morphology of suburban Dublin, with a particular focus on the locally known 'Lords of the Soil'. Ray Dinh documents the changing face of Darndale housing estate, from its inception in the 1970s to its decline in the 1980s, and subsequent redesign during the regeneration projects of the 1990s. Emma Gilleece captures a brief period in Irish history where the combination of new technologies, trans-atlantic aviation, and speculative building saw the development of Irish Estates at Corbally, Limerick.

2ha #15 considers sprawl: how to define and find it, how to evaluate its impacts, and how to respond, as urban designers, to the spatial conditions that sprawl engenders. In part one, a rationale is offered as to why sprawl requires greater attention and research in urban design. In part two, the question of how to design in sprawl is discussed. In part three, a compilation of projects which propose new design strategies are put forward in the context of sprawl's potential future transformation. 2ha #15 includes work undertaken as part of the module ‘Urban Design Studio’ (ARCT40690), within the Masters in Urban Design and Planning programme at the School of Architecture, Planning and Environmental Policy, UCD.

2ha #09 considers the role of leisure practices in forming the spatial order of suburban landscapes. Four essays detail the social codes, individual desires, and official policies that determine the structure of free time. Aoibheann Ní Mhearáin looks at the position of green space - from front lawns to football pitches - in the formation of a uniquely suburban society. Geraldine Biddle Perry recounts the origins of cycling and outdoor culture at the turn of the century, and describes its influence in shaping the emerging masses of suburbia. Janina Gosseye discusses the link between suburbia, modernism, and leisure in the invention of the 20th-century shopping centre, and how it shaped the planning and design of this period. Suvi Talja identifies the changing fortunes of Dublin's Corporation swimming pools, from the politics of their establishment to their proliferation as new generators of suburban civic life.

2ha #10 considers the impact of capital on the shaping of suburban space. Three essays describe how the architecture, society, and culture of a city can be influenced by the flows of finance. Denis Linehan discusses the increasingly transactional nature of urban space in Dublin, and the need for urbanists to better understand the political climate in which the built environment is being produced. Philip Lawton outlines the socio-spatial processes of regional and global urbanisation, questioning the usefulness of typical suburbia/downtown binaries in understanding a more complex metropolitan condition. Stephanie Rains reveals the long history of entanglement between property speculators, the press, politicians, and financial institutions in Ireland, and how this dominant model of development led to the emergence of Dublin's oldest suburbs.

Reflecting the chronological spread of the Irish Architectural Archive’s holdings, the works range from the mid 18th century to the late 20th. The book was published to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of the archive, with the selected projects including at least one item acquired in each of the years of the archive’s existence.

2ha: the journal of suburban design #14

2ha #14 considers the ways in which public art is made and consumed within the suburbs. Four essays describe divergent approaches to project commissioning and implementation, highlighting the varied contexts and conditions that determine a work's lasting impact.

2ha #14 considers the ways in which public art is made and consumed within the suburbs. Four essays describe divergent approaches to project commissioning and implementation, highlighting the varied contexts and conditions that determine a work's lasting impact. Kerry Guinan writes from an imagined future in order to look back, with a historic sensibility, towards projects of the recent past; a critical analysis which highlights disparities in practice and outcome across socio-economic divides in the Dublin region. Peter Dowie details the remaking of Ballymun during the regeneration scheme of the 2000s, reviewing the role that arts policy, funding, and practice played in legitimising the wider reconstruction project. Sean Lynch tells the story of an unusual and little-known temporary art work which briefly appeared in the suburban landscape of the Corish Roundabout, Co. Wexford. Shane Lynam documents the public sculptures of the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County area, surveying the spaces and places in which each stand.
