From ancient brickfields to future-facing buildings, Clay | Culture | Carbon is a journey into the elemental, essential material that has shaped our cities — clay — and how it may continue to reshape them.
Morris+Company’s latest exhibition explores clay not just as matter, but as memory: local, human, and deeply cultural. In an age of climate crisis, biodiversity loss and housing emergency, what can this material teach us about sustainability, innovation and craft? Through hands-on workshops, conversations and community collaborations — from schoolchildren to industry specialists — we reimagine the role of clay in a carbon-conscious world. Can we maintain craft in an age of industrialisation? Can we build beauty with biodiversity in mind? And how do we ensure our buildings remain loved, lived-in and lasting? From earth to hand. From past to possible. ___ Free Talk - Wednesday 17th September - 12:30-13:30 Edie Parfitt, is a member of CELLA, and an architectural designer exploring education and material experimentation as tools for inclusion, sustainable practice and collaboration. As co-designer of ‘Rooted in Clay’, the central installation of the Clay|Culture|Carbon exhibition, Edie will share her perspectives on co-making, ecological education, and collaborative spatial practice. *Lunch available from the café!
