NEW PRESS – THE WASTE HOUSE, UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON

THE WASTE HOUSE, GRAND PARADE CAMPUS – THE UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON

Two years on from the opening of The Waste House in Brighton we continue to receive great press about our award winning project.

The Brighton Waste House is the first permanent ‘carbon negative’ public building in Europe to be constructed from approximately 90% waste, surplus material & discarded plastic gathered from the construction and other industries, as well as our homes. It has Full Planning & Building Regulations Approvals. It tries to prove “that there is no such thing as waste, just stuff in the wrong place!” The project continues a line of research by BBM considering truly sustainable sources of materials and construction systems, or to be more precise truly ‘circular metabolisms’ that will one day help create a ‘Circular Economy’. Baker-Brown’s experience on this project has enabled him to write a book ‘The Re-Use Atlas: A designers guide towards a Circular Economy’.

The recent article has been published by the popular Dutch website make over. Click here to read the full article.
