Pallet locations

Why Pallets ?

It is good practice to always build from what is locally abundant. In the UK alone, millions of pallets end up in landfill every year !

In a rural location you build from the surrounding woodland. In an urban location (Hackney) packing pallets are the equivalent provided by the nearby industrial ecosystem. With a little creativity re-used materials have potential to take on a new function - as inspired by the precedents below
