MILL HOUSE

A project designed to encourage, likeminded designer to help influence the growth of the surrounding ecology around Bromley. Using digital fabrications as a base project, algae and clay from the river bed beneath the mill will be used as a material for 3d printing. The material being biodegradable will have no negative impact on the environment, rather it is aimed for wildlife to grow within the walls. the site is surrounded by pollution, mainly coming from the roads such as the a12 which runs right around the site. triggering the idea for wildlife to claim back what once was theirs. This is an opportunity for children to learn and understand the aspects of life, especially as our needs for the future is in their hands. Similar to how nature will reclaim areas around Bromley, the public are encouraged to come visit the site. the site includes a research lab dedicated to the production of digital fabrications, algae farms, and a working mill which generates small amounts of electricity. The building uses its own sustainable power hoping that other will follow in their path. The algae farms being accessible to the public to wander round  and experience due to the fact that algae takes in co2 during photosynthesis and releases fresh air, once again relating back to the pollution around the site. the site will be a place to fresh air and tranquillity in such a busy polluted area, benefiting in physical and mental health.
