Detail Magazine have published a book on Low-Tech design which features Feilden Fowles’ first project, Ty Pren. Projects in the book are analysed and mapped according to several criteria and visually presented in charts for comparative analysis throughout the book. A link to the German text can be found here.

Make low-tech our mantra and design clean and simple
Edmund Fowles has authored an article discussing how the impact of carbon-rich technologies that launched the modernism and high-tech movements, now fuel climate change. Accordingly, a reset to sustainable, low-tech design is now imperative. Thanks to input from Structure Workshop, Skelly & Couch, Mae Architects and Practice Architecture. You can read the full article here.
Feilden Fowles’ studio is net zero carbon
We are very proud to announce our studio has been verified as net zero carbon for operational energy under the UKGBC framework. Thank you to Max Fordham who undertook the verification assessment, and to our net zero working group who produced our in-house report. This is an important milestone towards our commitment to the RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge targets. We are continuing this work with an embodied energy analysis we hope to share soon. For more information on how to become net zero, see the UKGBC resources available here.
