Material Works Architecture has designed the Sustainable Workspaces interiors at Country Hall, London, United Kingdom.
Sustainable Workspaces repurposes abandoned parts of a historic building to create a new home for a community of emerging climate tech businesses.
The low-impact design focuses on minimising embodied energy, pioneering innovative materials and cradle-to-cradle life cycles.
Celebrating the 'as found' condition of the site, the project maximises the use of the existing and reclaimed.
New interventions are formed using de-mountable systems with recyclable materials derived from natural sources, by-products and waste streams.
The scheme dramatically reduces the embodied carbon used in construction and points towards a new aesthetic language that directly addresses the climate emergency.
This project has been longlisted in the workplace interior (large) category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
