our shiny new blog
February 13, 2009
The P5 project is just about underway and we are going to start talking about it to people other than eachother, so here it is – our blog…
We have previously met on Tuesday 10th after an introductory presentation by the Barnsley Development Agency, discussing our initial thoughts on the brief for P5 and the outcomes of R2 (a research project on concrete recently completed by the members of D2 studio group). We also urgently needed to find a good source for our material and tools, before designating the roles of Project Manager (Olivia Radford) and Project Reporter (Freya Townsend). In the interim between then and today, experimentation with concrete has been underway and today involves several scheduled tutorials to further this development. A visit to Kieran Nash in the concrete laboratory of civil engineering provided a more reliable concrete mix which will be left to dry over the weekend along with various other samples.
