Empirical: 2019-2020

Empirical is an annual architectural research journal by TU Dublin architectural technology students exploring environmental design, digitalisation, materials, and building performance.

Empirical is an annual architectural research journal by TU Dublin architectural technology students exploring environmental design, digitalisation, materials, and building performance. The research undertaken is always specific, evidence-based, and useful for real world application. Each year, undergraduates use a wide range of highly technical testing approaches, including credit-card-sized Raspberry Pi computers to place sensors within buildings, calibrated and guarded hot boxes to measure heat and moisture transfer through new building materials, and coding to create automated design-checking systems. This yields an interesting balance of drawing, making, and synthesis through writing. The programme’s continuing commitment to empirical research design gives the publication its name.

2ha: the journal of suburban design #02

2ha #02 explores the relationship between photography and suburban space. Three essays respond to the intimate link between the medium of photography and the spaces we occupy.

2ha #02 explores the relationship between photography and suburban space. Three essays respond to the intimate link between the medium of photography and the spaces we occupy. Michael Hayes begins with the message of the medium, developing an argument that a uniquely photographic vision – defined by frame, limitations of the lens and a decentralised point-of-view – has shaped both the perception and making of suburban space. Hugh Campbell presents an insight into the changing environment of urban America 1964-79 and how this shift from centre to suburb is reflected in the work of Garry Winogrand and Stephen Shore. Martin McGagh produces a visual essay of photographic work which contemplates young adults, as they move through the twilight of their childhood, in the context of the generic housing estates where they live.

2ha: the journal of suburban design #07

2ha #07 considers the impact of cinema - as both medium and architecture - on shaping the suburban condition. Three essays respond to the temporal and physical spaces afforded by the motion picture. Dan Bashara considers the early work of animation studio United Productions of America, placing their abstract drawing style in the broader context of modernism, suburbanisation, and the visual illusion of spaciousness. Donal Fallon documents the early origins of cinema architecture in Dublin and its subsequent mid 20th-century heyday, when many new, purpose-built screens were constructed in the city's expanding suburbs. Jocelyn Szczepaniak-Gillece discusses the contemporary trend for cinema-restaurants in the USA, and places recent developments within a much longer history of consumption, sensory indulgence, and movie-going.
