| Asked to build a recycling centre
we proposed Superuse strategy:
Nomen est Omen.
The distribution section of the
building is made from discarded
shipping containers. Second hand
goods are reconditioned in workshops
and sold in the shopping
area next door. Customers deliver
goods into a drive-in lobby.
The building looks like an enormous
display window made out
of reclaimed window-frames. The
roof harvests sustainable energy
and water is stored in a discarded
windmill blade, placed upright as
a prominent landmark. |
