Carbon Copies
23 August – 7 September 2021
For the past three decades, mainstream architecture has been addressing our changing climate through reducing the thermal demands of new buildings. This has produced a massive high-tech industry based on energy reducing products, almost all of which are dependent on crude oil. Carbon Copies interrogated this narrative by re-imagining iconic residential typologies using a low embodied energy palette.

In November 2019, Emma Lacey, ceramicist and Stage 2 Leader of BA Ceramic Design at Central Saint Martins, undertook a residency in Jingdezhen, China’s ‘city of porcelain’. Still, Life showcases Emma’s material response and her inspirational experience in Jingdezhen.
