Cruth Curach is the result of Craftitecture, a design competition run by the Crafts Council of Ireland and the Irish Architecture Foundation to celebrate Year of Craft 2011 on the island of Ireland. This pavilion is a collaboration between Bucholz McEvoy Architects and master boat builder, Jim Horgan. Constructed using the form of currachs, it will move on horizontal and vertical axes to form an open space when in use and a sculptural form when closed. Cruth Curach makes its debut at Electric Picnic as part of Global Green. Following the picnic it will be installed in Merrion Square for Open House Dublin, 7th - 9th October; for details visit www.craftinireland.com or www.architecturefoundation.ie/openhouse
