Abstract
Manufacturing productive land is the basis for this thesis document. The document is split into five related sections each displaying an emphasis on manipulation of ground in a productive manner over time. O rganising land deals with a study based on a farm in Derryleigh, Newport, Co. Tipperary and explores through case study the changing nature of productivity of ground/farmland and the resultant dwellings and sheds which become an extension of such the landscape over time. Productive land is based on the thesis primer project and is set in Drumgeely, Shannon, Co. Clare. This project proposes to examine left over derelict non productive land and proposes an idea of land use in a manufactured productive communal manner. The thesis outline is seen as the introduction to the final thesis work. The section puts forward the study of boglands as a landscape of continued human manufacture. The section examines through sectional drawings the changing nature of such landscapes over time. Manufacturing/Land, the thesis text, investigates manufacturing and productivity in an agricultural, peatland and urban landscape context. The moving bog is examines manipulation of local scaled peatlands at Annaholty and Gouig on the Limerick - Tipperary boarder through models, drawings and text. Site/Brief proposes the continued productivity of manufactured ground through cranberry production on an industrial Bord na Mona raised bog site after its exhaustion, namely Derryville bog located outside Templetouhy, Co. Tipperary.
