...is MEDS?
MEDS is an established international network of students and young graduates that meet annually to undertake a series of workshops under a common theme. Its 4 year history includes winning design awards and featuring in high-profile publications such as “Dezeen”.
History of MEDS MEDS was first set up four years ago in Alanya, in Turkey, with just 100 participants. Four years and three countries in, the capital of Ireland will host MEDS’ fifth assembly and cater for its 250 creative international individuals!
The two – week summer event is a platform for 250 international students and young graduates of every design discipline to participate in workshops lead by talented tutors.
- 2010 MEDS Alanya, Turkey - 2011 MEDS Istanbul, Turkey
This is a chance to improve your existing skills, explore new disciplines, and make life- long friends.You will expand your network through interacting with students of design schools from all over the world and get a feel for many different cultures.
- MENC Slovakia - 2012 MEDS Slovenia - MENC Belgium
For 14 days you will be living, eating, working and exploring the city with the vibrant MEDS collective, which will have an undoubtedly positive impact on your design, communication, team-building and leadership skills. The end of the event is marked by a city-wide show case of the work produced over the two weeks.
- 2013 MEDS Portugal - MENC Kosovo - 2014 MEDS Dublin, Ireland

...is the theme?
“There are no strangers here, only friends that have not yet met.”
THEME: GLOBAL GREEN The GLOBAL aspect of our workshop is in reference to Ireland’s diaspora, diversity and our collaboration with the international interdisciplinary network of design students, the MEDS network. Our sustainable and innovative crowd funding campaigns use of materials and the reutilisation of the products of the assembly
- William Butler Yeats GLOBAL DUBLIN “On the world map, Ireland is a small island at the edge of Europe. However, our global reach is nothing short of remarkable. This is down to our diaspora and our diversity. Ireland is a land marked by the ebb and flow of people. We have experienced periods of mass emigration and times where prosperity has encouraged thousands to come here and build a life for themselves and their families. There are an estimated 80 million people worldwide that are of Irish origin. About 15% of Dublin’s population in 2006 was made up of non-Irish nationals.”
post workshop encapsulates our GREEN philosophy. OUR AIM / MISSION This year’s workshop aims to
To establish a platform for interdisciplinary collaboration and discussion within the Irish design community. To Promote Irish Design internationally, through design and build projects with international collaborators.
- Pivot Dublin
To establish and cultivate an international network of likeminded individuals who wish to positively affect the built environment through creative and innovative design based interventions To reinforce and strengthen design and construction education in Ireland by giving design students and recent graduates an opportunity to gain practical construction / production experience.

...is MEDS 2014 happening?
For the first time MEDS will be held in Dublin, Ireland. Taking place from the 10th to the 24th of August 2014.
for several hundred years. It was prone to attacks from the Native Irish and suffered repeated bouts of disease. From the 17th Century onwards the city began to change. New and wiser direction and governance throughout the 18th Century developed Dublin into one of the finest and largest cities in Europe. Much of the city as it is known today was laid out over the course of that century. Broad straight streets of tall brick houses, leafy squares and effortless vistas helped define the city as a place of extreme elegance. A high standard of practiced crafts became highly regarded, notably Irish furniture, silver, glass and plasterwork for which the city is still famed.
During our workshop tutors and participants will be immersed in Irelands rich culture and heritage. They will get to experience firsthand Dublin’s architectural landscape. This is the first time in the organisation’s history that the workshop will be hosted outside mainland Europe. Never before has an international interdisciplinary student design workshop of its scale been hosted in the city. Dublin is a vibrant city, small enough to be walked end to end in under an hour, yet large enough to have a cosmopolitan feel. The city has a long and varied history. It stretches back over a thousand years. The city’s history covers everything from the Vikings, when it was the medieval world’s largest slave trading centre, to the 19th Century, when it became home to some of the greatest minds in modern Irish Literature - the likes of Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw and James Joyce. The official date of the city’s foundation has been cited as 988. Since then the city was a Viking stronghold; it became the largest Viking City outside of Scandinavia under their control and flourished into a thriving port. As a matter of fact, the entire population of Iceland is of mixed Irish and Viking ancestry.
Abruptly, the 19th century saw much of the city sink into some of the worst slums in Europe. The once great mansions of the aristocracy originally occupied by maybe ten people were now being occupied by up to 130 in some cases. But despite such poverty the city was still home to some of the great thinkers of Europe as the city became a hotbed of Irish National Romanticism. Yates, Shaw, Joyce, Wilde were all products of this city, their minds, wit and ideals were formed here. The 20th Century saw the city once again become a true national capital, home to parliament as Ireland finally achieved independence from Britain after the bloody wars of Irish Independence and civil war, which saw a large part of Dublin’s O’Connell St destroyed at the outbreak of fighting in the 1916 rising, the date from which many Irish consider the Republic to be born.
What followed were the English Normans, who were initially invited into the country by the traitorous King of Leinster to displace the Irish High King, ended up settling in the country for a period of almost 800 years. During this time Dublin settled into a dull provincialism
However despite the achievements of the 20th century, 11
Dublin suffered very badly. The city which had become something of a famed 18th century time capsule, something like Venice, was swept away in large swathes. While enough of the city survives to give a sense of its past grandeur, almost half of the original building stock was destroyed. The Celtic Tiger which began in the 1990s and lasted till circa 2008 saw the city become pompous and alien to the rest of the country. Expensive shops, and vast numbers of apartments and streets were created, but yet despite the growth it was an empty world. This is perhaps best sensed in Dublin’s Docklands, which while home to some fine streets feels entirely underutilised and strangely false. The recession that followed acted as a local renaissance for the cultural aspect if the city. People have begun to think and create again. The last five years has seen Dublin begin once again become a city for people. Home to lots of creative collectives, trendy cafes and shops, the city has produced numerous designers filmmakers and architects of international appreciation, becoming a city of culture in motion.

The City The Phoenix Park/Islandbridge
feel, particularly between Green St and Smithfield.
Islandbridge is where the first Viking settlement of Dublin was sited. It is home to a pretty village of Kilmainham, famed for the historic prison and the Irish Museum of Modern Art, IMMA, housed in the beautiful Royal Hospital, the first Baroque building in the city.
How to get there It is part of the northside of the city, about a 10min walk from O’Connell St North Georgian City
Across the river is the Phoenix Park, Europe’s largest urban park. The park is famed for a number of things; it is home to the President, a large herd of Royal deer and the Wellington Monument, which has the honour of being the heaviest Obelisk in the world. How to get there This district of the city is on the far western extend of the city, while it is about a 20 minute walk to it, you might also access it via the Luas Red Line or Dublin Bus 145. If traveling around the Phoenix park, it would be recommended you rent a bike at the gate as it would take you at least 3 hours to walk right through it.
The North side of Dublin was formerly the grandest district of the city, home to much of the Irish Nobility, particularly in the area of Henrietta St and Parnell Square. Following the Act of Union in 1800 which annexed Irish Government to Britain, the North Georgian part of the city went into irreversible decline, from which it has never emerged. Despite becoming a dilapidated place it still remains an extremely beautiful area full of what were once very grand houses. Some of the 18th centuries finest buildings can be found in the district, notably the neoclassical Custom House and Four Courts - James Gandon’s great masterpieces.
Oxmantown
South Georgian City
The marshy areas on the North side of the river developed into Oxmantown and operated as an independent district of the city under the control of the Abbeys of St Mary and St Savior. It is rumoured that ancient tunnels under the river built to connect the abbeys to Christchurch still exist under the river. It is an edgy neighbourhood, full of interesting places and sites, and one of the few parts of the city which retains its medieval
Home to St. Stephen’s Green, Trinity College, Dublin Castle and the Parliament (Dail Eireann), the South Georgian City developed more haphazardly than the north side of the city. A famous myth exists in which The Duke of Leinster declared he was leaving the North side of the city to build his mansion in the unpopular Southside saying ‘where I go fashion follows’. 15
In truth his attempts were largely unsuccessful in the 18th Century, and this part of the city was not high in demand. Though having said that his ducal palace, Leinster House, which is now home to the Dail, the Irish Parliament, was the inspiration for the White House, built by James Hoban.
Temple Bar The central district for tourists in Dublin, it developed out of some of the cities medieval districts. It is currently one of the busiest tourist districts in the city. However most of the side streets are populated with hipstery shops and cafes and the area remains popular with much of the city’s youth.
However since the act of union the area has become the most desirable district in the city, with many of its fine Georgian houses and squares perfectly preserved. The longest unbroken line of Georgian street streetscape anywhere in the world, the Georgian Mile, existed in the district until it was controversially partially demolished in the 1960s. The district is home to the National Gallery, Museum, Grafton St, the city’s main shopping district (though in truth Henry St on the Northside is better) and some of the most pleasant streets in the city.. The Docklands The Docklands and IFSC are one of the strangest districts of any city anywhere. Developed from the late 1990s onwards, they were intended to act as an Irish version of Canary Warf in London with a formerly heavily industrialised part of the city being developed into a financial district, with high end apartments. However it is a soulless place, lacking in community or sense of place. It is completely alien to the rest of the city, and strangely empty. It does however have some fine buildings and restaurant. It is worth visiting this surreal world.

Upcycle
Carte Blanche
Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or for better environmental value. In the context of this workshop we are asking potential tutors to design and construct a (cycling) bike capable of being used as a projector station for our mobile homeless cinema. Potential tutors should be familiar with the anatomy of a bike and have a sound understanding of the mechanical principals upon which push bikes operate.
Carte Blanche, French for “Blank Card�, is an open call for any and all projects that could potentially be constructed, made or carried out at our summer workshop. If you have recently or previously designed a college project and wished that you could physically realise it, this is your opportunity to get it done.
Modification of an old bike or bikes is essential.
22
Universal Design
Simon Community
Not taking into account today’s leading genius technological advances and the few gems of brilliant building design, out of sheer will to outsmart and outsell others, the design and built industries create products, buildings and spaces that are unintuitive, complicated and in the end unneeded. These things are produced using a cover up of innovation and an illusion of a “sensitive response” to the diverse range of peoples’ needs.
This workshop is in progress - stay tuned to our Facebook page and check out the final version of the Tutor Pack for it’s details!
As designers, it is up to you to come up with ideas and to create something that works at a Universal Design standard and responds to the current Dublin City. We are excited to announce that the Universal Design workshop is in collaboration with The Centre for Excellence in Universal Design at the National Disability Authority.
23
Exhibition Pavilion
Furniture Design & Making (Wood)
Provide a sheltered space for exhibitions related to the history of the Grangegorman site. The concept of the pavilion should provide an appropriate conceptual narrative in which to display such exhibitions. Cater for mounting media on walls, work suspended from the roof, and any alternatives suggested by you. See page 25 for an outline of the site history that you can use as inspiration.
Design 3 exemplary pieces of wooden furniture. Build one of the three exemplary pieces. The aim of this workshop is to provide a platform for participants to upskill in the fields of carpentry and joinery. During the workshop tutors will guide participants through the construction process and offer advice and suggestions whenever needed or requested. Each of the pieces produced will form part of a group exhibition at the end of the two week workshop and will later be sold at auction for charity.
The pavilion must be designed so that large pieces of it can be pre-fabricated in a remote workshop facility and then transferred to the site for a 2-day assembly period. Dismantling the pavilion in the future should not cause destruction of materials because the pavilion may need to be rebuilt somewhere else.
24
Sheltered Seating Pavilion
Furniture Design & Making (Concrete)
Provide a sheltered outdoor space with seating for the residents of a care facility for the homeless. The facility is run by the Dublin Simon Community.
Design and build concrete furniture as part of a group. The aim of this workshop is to provide a platform for participants to work with the heavyweight material of concrete and explore the various different finishes that can be achieved using shuttering, aggregates and dyes. During the workshop tutors will guide participants through the construction process and offer advice and suggestions whenever needed or requested. Each of the pieces produced will form part of a group exhibition at the end of the two week workshop and will later be sold at auction for charity.
Due to the wet climate in Ireland, the Simon community would like to provide their residents with a sheltered place where they can get some fresh air, even in bad weather. The site of the pavilion is private property, offering the homeless community of Dublin a garden space that they can feel safe in. Your pavilion should be the focal point of this garden. Electric lighting can be used for functional reasons. Your pavilion can be located only on the area shown on the plan.
25
Fashion Design
Concrete Cube
Design and make clothing. Create a body of work for a charity auction.
The primary objective of this workshop is to explore the process of concrete casting. Participants will develop an in-depth understanding of the structural & aesthetic characteristics of concrete. They will also prototype and test potential possibilities regarding casting, concrete mixtures and admixtures and concrete finishes. Tutors should be familiar with the physical properties of concrete, the creation of formwork, releasing agents, concrete additives, etc. Objects of use and beauty fit for exhibition and/or use are to be the output.
Be part of a fashion design team that will produce a line of clothing consisting of seven exemplary fashion pieces. The appeal of your finished work to the general public will be a key aspect of the workshop to be considered throughout the designing of the pieces. Each of the items should be of sufficient quality that it could be touched and worn by many. The pieces produced will form part of a public exhibition and at the end of the show will be auctioned off for charity. They may eventually be attained as a collection or as individual pieces so a clear overall theme should be evident but each piece should also have its own individual design merits.
26
REC
Photography
Last year’s REC workshop was a whooping success in gathering and spreading information through regular release of printed publications that let everyone in MEDS know what each workshop is up to and other information about current areas of interest. This year we strive to expand REC’s impact to news reports, video logs and creating an online hype in order to reach the public outside of the MEDS circle.
Photograph Dublin City: it’s Culture, it’s People, it’s Buildings. Create a body of work for a charity auction. Your skills as a photographer will be challenged in various solo and group exercises. With your help and ideas a theme will be set through which to take your photographs. It is suggested that a variety of formats should be explored when preparing the work for exhibition. By sharing all knowledge of photography with the group new collaborative ideas will form amongst the participants. The body of printed work generated from your workshop will be auctioned for a charity at the end of the festival.
This year’s REC group should set up and daily update a blog, the existing Global Green Facebook page and produce a printed newspaper every two days. A short film at the end or regular “news updates” available for screening should also be produced. These are the basic requirements, but feel free to let your imagination run wild! You will be journalists, editors, film makers, photographers, writers and paparazzi – enough of a challenge?
27
Audio Visual
Guerilla Graffiti
The primary objective of this workshop is to explore how our experience of a place or space can be affected and manipulated through the use of an audio or visual medium. Potential tutors can use the medium of natural or synthetic light or sound as the bases for their workshop. The primary objective of this workshop is to activate or enhance a public space in Dublin City through a staged intervention or interventions.
The primary objective of this workshop is to examine how ornamentation or simple decoration can be expressed in a modern context and through the medium of graffiti. Do not feel limited to the stereotypes of old school Graffiti – think outside the box! Can it have a positive effect on a place? Can it define a mood and or set a tone? Can this be quantified?
28
Prima Facia
Work It Out
Prima Facia is a Latin expression meaning on first encounter, first blush, or at first sight. The objective of this workshop is to explore our intuitive senses. You will be transported to an unknown site in Dublin city and based on first impressions will have to assess the public space and propose a public activation / intervention.
Inspired by an open air fitness center “Hidropark� located in the Ukraine, potential tutors are asked to design and construct a piece of multifunctional gym equipment from scrap metal. The proposal should be structurally sound, mechanically efficient and of sound design and construction. During this workshop participants will be asked to work with scrap metal. Prior metalworking experience is essential.

Jacob’s Inn & Isaacs
City Assembly House
Located in an 18th century wine merchants warehouse Isaacs Hostel is a quirky and lively back packer’s hostel located just off Gardiner St. in the heart of the city. It is full of charm and character and located no more than 20minutes from all of our sites.
Built in the 1760s by the Society of Artists, the building was not only Irelands first college of art and architectural drawing, but also home to the Octagonal Room, supposedly western Europe’s first purpose built public art gallery. It has had a chequered history, and despite the regular Palladian front to the building, the interior is a perplexing series of mismatched spaces, indicating the possibility of the interiors alterations over the centuries. Currently home to the Irish Georgian Society, it is currently being lovingly restored and renovated.
Accomodation
MEDS Exhibition Space
Jacobs Inn is a subsidiary of Isaacs, and located only 20m away from it. It is a spacious new building, with large area rooms, with excellent common areas. Hostels include linen, wifi, breakfast and secure lockers, as well as access to kitchens, laundry, etc.
33
DIT Bolton St. / Linenhall
Grangegorman
The original Dublin Polytechnique school DIT Bolton St and Linenhall now form a large part of the Dublin Institute of Technology’s faculty, being home to construction, engineering, trades and architecture.
Built in 1818 as the Richmond Asylum and designed by the foremost architect of the time, Francis Johnson, the Richmond Asylum served as home for the mentally unstable for over 150 years. The site is currently being developed by the Dublin Institute of Technology as a centralised campus, set to be fully operational by 2016. Despite its sad history there is a stunning beauty to the site, which this year is home to one of our workshop!
Workshop Space
External Workshop Space
Linenhall, formerly a building of 4 acres was the central exchange for the Irish Linen Industry in the 18th Century but was almost completely destroyed in the 1916 Easter Rising. It is now home to the Dublin School of Architecture.
34
CHQ
Iveagh Gardens
One of the first and few industrial age buildings built in the city; it is a beautifully austere building. While neglected up until the 1990s it was then controversially converted into a shopping centre, despite being originally intended for a cultural space. Since the Irish economic collapse, its purpose as a shopping centre has become redundant, with over 80% of shops unoccupied. It now wishes to take the opportunity to become the cultural centre it ought to be - MEDS being the perfect platform.
Once the private gardens of one of the great rakes of the city, Lord Clonmel it is one of the best kept secrets of the city, which even few Dubs know about. It is completely hidden from the street on all sides by buildings and walls, yet when you are in it, you feel as if you are sat in the middle of the country. It gained its current look in the 1850s during the winter exhibition, taking its influence from the great gardens of Italy.

Thanks to... With the help of Criostóir O’ Caoimh and Julie Molloy a collection of photographs of Dublin are presented throughout this year’s Participant Pack. The photographs offer us everyday views of the city. Hopefully these great images will strengthen your interest in Dublin and encourage you to come join us this summer. A big thank you to them both for being so generous with their work!
