How to Build a Low-Carbon Home

With almost 30% of global carbon emissions caused by the construction and running of buildings. There is a need radically rethink the materials we use to build our towns and cities. Rather than radical novelties, How to Build a Low-Carbon explores how seemingly traditional wood, stone, and straw are being revolutionized for contemporary homes. Each section is dedicated to one of the three resources. Therefore, tracing its journey from raw material to building material to architecture.

How to Build a Low-Carbon Home will introduce visitors to the work of three contemporary architects who are pioneering the use of these materials: Waugh Thistleton Architects, Material Cultures, and Groupwork. Visitors will be able to observe how these materials have been in buildings across the UK through photographs, drawings, renders, and films of recent seminal architectural projects.

How to Build a Low-Carbon Home was by the Design Museum’s Future Observatory. A national design research program for the green transition. The display imagines a future in which low-carbon construction is no longer a prize-winning exception but a mainstream reality.
