    I made a new discovery while out today. The following building is set in a woodland/park called Garey Ny Cloie at St. Johns. It is owned by the Department of Environment, Food & Agriculture and also houses the Departments of Forestry and Fisheries I believe. The details of the building are on the second post. :)

        Cool:dbgrtmb: Like the use of Hemp in a building, at last someone is doing something sensible with it.

        I thought you might like this Zigs. The building although modern blended in very well in the grounds. I'd like to have a look round inside, but I don't think that'll be possible.

        I've read about eco residential houses but that's the first office I've heard of, and what a great idea. It does look good too. We need some of those on the mainland - great find Sheal :dbgrtmb:

            Thanks for showing us this Sheal. Most interesting and aesthetically pleasing in design. When we get it right, we are pretty good:dbgrtmb:
