Below are a few images which showcase the teams who made the final of the 2013 Dublin Space Invaders (Facebook) planning competition. All six teams came up with clever ways to regenerate a plot of land on Thomas Street, Dublin 8, which is owned by The Digital Hub, and you can get a sneaky peak at the designs below. You can view the full designs at The Atrium in the Dublin City Council (DCC) Wood Quay offices until, and including, this Friday. We will be presenting the designs here on FRG.ie over the coming weeks and months.
Here is quick peak at the teams and their presentations…
