Rather than delve into the multitude of reasons why the Rotunda is a unique eco-structure which is positive for people, planet and biodiversity; we thought we might just highlight TWO of the main elements which we promote as our primary specifications. (1) Sedum (Green) Roof and (2) Groundscrews – low-impact/above ground footings.

The Green roof is THE MOST POPULAR Roofing application We source our green roofing systems from the team at Sky Garden https://www.sky-garden.co.uk/

This is wonderful news for those embarking into the planning process for a CONSERVATION AREA, NATIONAL PARK, LISTED PROPERTY OR AONB.

We believe that an eco-building is one which causes minimum disturbance to the landscape; and not only avoids concrete wherever possible but actively replaces the loss of vegetation taken up by it’s footprint – with the roof! These two elements alone, go a long way to mitigate the impact of your building. Next week – timber!
