EcoBuild 2008



We were asked to provide a demonstration area for The Natural Materials live exhibition at Ecobuild, Earls Court, the world's biggest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment. We provided a structure where Abey Smallcombe ran a series of earth building workshops, whilst we held hewing demonstrations and peg making workshops.
