Carlow Carbon Futures: vol. 1
Book
2020
Dublin School of Architecture Press
The 2020 class of Fourth-Year Architecture at the Dublin School of Architecture undertook the task of redesigning an entire county for the year 2050; to investigate and imagine the possible spatial outcomes of a phased move towards a zero-carbon scenario for the entire county of Carlow. Fueled by love, rage, and imagination, this publication displays the wide variety of studies and work produced, developing visions for a brighter future and better world: a ‘Climactive Manifesto’.
