Through the lens of the pages of the Architectural Review magazine, Wide-Angle View is an exhibition on the Manplan series, a ground-breaking exploration of architecture’s impact on society.
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 revolutionised for contemporary homes. Each section is dedicated to one of the three resources, tracing its journey from raw material to building material to architecture.
