So I was looking around on the internet for a few inspirations and came across this project, which is the Woodland Trust HQ designed by KLH UK. The reason why I found this project so inspiring is because I felt the overall form was fascinating. It plan view it is quite unique but in section and elevation it is very dynamic, how the roof slopes from three floors to one floor, whilst creating this courtyard space within as well. Another aspect of this project which I found interesting was the technology behind it, they used pre-fabricated concrete panels. See one of the problems with a complete timbered based building is trying to achieve the thermal mass of a concrete based building. However these 'pre-fabricated concrete panels' allow timber based buildings to reach the same thermal mass as concrete buildings.
