Building Week

Building Week Building Week is about making the way forward with highly insulated, well developed, small buildings

This small buildings project started over a cup of tea between Graham & Steve. A passionate cup of tea in some comfy lounge chairs, & a bunch of ideas about how we can create little buildings. The original idea to develop permanent small buildings came from a think tank discussion with a large group of teenagers, who wanted to feel that is is achievable to have their own place to call home.
