beam — Cybercity Wakefield

Beam and DLA Architecture are run­ning a stall at the Wakefield Farmers Market on Saturday 10th July between 9am-4pm, as part of

They will be exhib­it­ing ideas about what the future might hold for cit­ies and ask­ing for your thoughts about what the Wakefield of the future might be like. We’ll be ask­ing for your thoughts on ques­tions like,

- How can we power our cit­ies without fossil fuels?

- Where will our food come from in the future?

- How will envir­on­mental change have affected Wakefield by 2100?

The  input will help inspire an archi­tec­tural model, which will be built as the centrepiece of Wakefield’s con­tri­bu­tion to an inter­na­tional ‘Cybercity’ exhib­i­tion to be held in Germany at the end of this year. Models will also be con­trib­uted by Wakefield and Hemsworth College stu­dents and the final Cybercity exhib­i­tion will fea­ture mod­els from groups in Germany, The Netherlands and China, as well as from Wakefield.
