Community Kiln
Spatial Practices Live Project | M Arch Architecture, BA Ceramics and Global Generation Skip Garden | Summer Workshop 2018
Community Kiln Community Kiln evolved out of Ignition: a partnership between Central Saint Martin’s Ceramics Department and Global Generations Skip Garden, Kings Cross that has grown out of the success of CSM’s Local Encounters programme of creative engagement. In 2018, a new collaboration was formed between the College’s BA Ceramic Design and M Arch Architecture courses to design and build the first Community Kiln in the King’s Cross area. Project Lead: M Arch Architecture CSM, Ceramics CSM, and The Skip Garden Project Directors: Greg Ross, Takeshi Hayatsu and Carlotta Novella
Client: Global Generations Skip Garden Design & Fabrication: M Arch Architecture Unit 3 Students – Constructing in Detail, Summer Workshop 2018
The first iteration has been built, installed and commissioned at The Skip Garden in London’s Kings Cross development area. The intention is to evolve and proliferate such facilities for the benefit of communities locally, nationally, and internationally.
