cubes

—by super/collider / Wednesday, July 7, 2010

a tale of two clever cubes this week, both designed to educate people about carbon in various ways. the first is Eurban’s Carbon Cube, lower photo, created in 2006 from offcuts produced by the architecture firm’s various eco-friendly timber structures. measuring precisely 360mm x 360mm x 360mm, each cube is designed to act as a piece of furniture containing 10kg of carbon. design consultancy Ramboll’s new project, also called The Carbon Cube, is similar in showing how much timber is required to absorb the average UK citizen’s annual CO2 output represented by a 2.4m cubic volume, with members of the public invited to make a pledge to reduce emissions by decorating for a small cube of spruce

you can see Ramboll’s cube on Store Street as part of the Pocket Park, and sit on one of Eurban’s cubes at our GREEN/SPACE event tomorrow, where they’ll also be on sale at 30% off RRP
