Ground Below Zero

This project focuses on 'Earth' as a construction material while taking a special interest in forming a prefabricated series of components that can be assembled in different spacial arrangements. The project also responds to the current climate crisis and looks at ways to enhance the material and its impact. The prefabricated rammed earth panels are designed to be time and labour efficient and to be put together by construction workers. The diversity of shapes and sizes existing within the kit are created to allow for ease of design while looking to create for a specific programme or space. The prefabrication process not only optimizes production and the construction process; it also allows for material consistency and higher quality output, which are particularly important for achieving industrial norms and standards. Lastly, the project focuses on various numbers of application and using the prefabricated components such as the final application proposal for a roof garden and roof extension in 1-5 London wall buildings.

'How does prefabrication help?

Itallows for material consistency and higher quality output, which are particularly important for achieving industrial norms and standards. They can be carefully controlled and tested in a laboratory setting through prefabrication, as is the case for concrete or other standardized, industrial materials.'
