Developing architectural protocols for resource stewardship and care in Edinburgh, in collaboration with local charities and social enterprises, and combining live-build construction with speculative design.

The Radical Harvest studio promotes reuse and repurposing as forms of situated architectural practice; as modes of encountering, reimagining and revaluing that which already exists; as ways to engage with the spatial and temporal specificity of sites, materials, and communities; and as tools for prototyping new design practices, methods, and assemblies. Recognising the political nature—and often violent effects—of design decisions, and their vast contributions to environmental injustice and climatic collapse, and using unfired earth as a building material, the studio explored, learnt about, envisioned, and prototyped novel forms of inclusive, bioregional, and low-carbon architecture for the 21st century.
