Once built, RDLAC Garden Room will become a test-centre for UEL’s Architectural Technology course, who will be monitoring it over a full heating and cooling season to test the internal environment and ongoing energy usage. The building will be the first full-scale prototype of the U-Build self-build fabrication system. Studio Bark U-Build U-Build site Read More
