[John Palmer @johnpalmer878]

Just stop and think for a moment ... if we manage to retrofit all our 29M buildings to #Passivhaus by 2050, we only just manage to get to #NetZero ... that’s 1 home every 36 seconds, starting now. #RealityCheck

[Architects Declare UK @archdeclare]

Craig Robertson @AHMMArchitects @RIBA 2030Challenge: non-domestic building targets. Work with all profession. Set goals at early stages monitor/review/measure. @Mariaisasmith Think differently about maintenance/repair. Internalise new design aesthetic. Tech we need already exists

[Lime Green @lime_products]

Great show but does the future of building really include cement screed with polystyrene aggregate, ICF filled with concrete and rebar and plastic wood? #futurebuild #plasticsinconstrution

[nbuk @NaturalBuildUK]

A huge thank you to everyone who helped with the #NaturalBuilding area, we look forward to seeing you all again next year @FuturebuildNow!! @Terra_Perma_EB @Grain_Archi @strawworks @EarthBuildingUK @lime_products @ConkerCC @ThatchAdvice

[nbuk @NaturalBuildUK]

Barbara Jones of Straw Works will be demonstrating straw bale construction at 12:00 on the NBUK stand G70. Come along and see how amazing this material is.

[nbuk @NaturalBuildUK]

It’s going to be a great day. Amazing to be surrounded by Natural materials, contractors, consultants, suppliers, and architects. #strawbalebuilding with @strawworks, #timberframing with @Terra_Perma_EB, #earthbuilding with @EarthBuildingUK, #limeplastering with @lime_products

[nbuk @NaturalBuildUK]

Barbara Jones is with us in the #NaturalBuilding area at @FuturebuildNow talking about #straw and other #organic materials that naturally store #carbon, creating #zerocarbon or even #carbonnegative #buildings @strawworks #naturalmaterials

[Futurebuild @FuturebuildNow]

What’s on at #Futurebuild2020 - Barbara Jones @strawworks on alternative building materials that store and utilise carbon and increase efficiency.

[nbuk @NaturalBuildUK]
