Project Update

The EcoCocon straw panels have arrived on site, and assembly is now underway for this low-carbon project located in the South Downs National Park.

The design embodies our Fabric First approach, prioritising the use of entirely natural building materials. This strategy results in a building envelope with both low operational carbon intensity and high carbon sequestration, while also creating a healthy, VOC-free internal environment.

It’s exciting to witness how quickly the panel system comes together, thanks to its offsite manufacturing process, which ensures both accuracy and precision quality. We’re eagerly anticipating the next milestone—the installation of the roof structure!

Outpost is proud to be listed on the EcoCocon website as one of their recognised UK architects. This acknowledgment reflects our expertise in working with the EcoCocon system.

Below, is an insight into the panel project process, highlighting how we collaborate closely with the EcoCocon technical team to coordinate the panel design while leading the overall coordination of the project.
