Can’t really claim any credit – this sort of thing is becoming common currency these days internationally:

China

Abu Dhabi

London

But I do apologise for being Dublin-ocentric.

Darkman – isn’t it amazing that the Communist Party of China and even the Tory party in England (when even the Tories are talking about the environment you know it must be something to worry about) are talking about these things, and yet if you talk about it in an architecture forum in Ireland you’re branded as some sort of whacked out green activist.
