A surge in volumetric construction is beginning to solve housing problems by creating more prefabricated homes. These homes can solve issues around the lack of housing for councils, renters and communities. We find out more.
Museums, despite their contents becoming more precocious with age, have faced a battle to prove they can thrive in the face of the ongoing digital revolution and economic recession. We delve into the role of design in creating and adapting museums so that they meet the needs of the modern visitor.
We also explore how CAD software has emerged and matured and, at the same time, also had an overt influence on design. While doing this we explain how designs have changed as the software has progressed.
Dr Veronika Schröpfer of the Architects’ Council of Europe and Elisabeth O’Brien of the Limerick Institute of Technology tell us how the A2PBEER project is a great example of how European projects can support achieving 2030 energy efficiency targets.
