OPEN PROJECTS
Projects
Open projects. Each one starts with a question: can a local waste replace something we would normally buy or dig up? Everything here is under testing. We publish what we find. If you have an idea, we want to hear it.
-
CERAMICS / CLAY
Park Royal Clay
Turn clay dug from a Park Royal construction site into a usable casting slip, and map how it behaves when fired.
-
CERAMICS
Ceramic Loop
London construction clay, wood-ash glaze, alkaline wash water, glass composite. One chain of waste.
-
NATURAL BUILDING
Urban Cob
The same question asked of a wall instead of a pot.
OPEN AND ONGOING
Every project here is open and ongoing. The tests, recipes, and results go up as we run them. Read the working notes to see the research as it develops, read why we work in the open, or see what the research has made.
