Earth Centre Entrance Building

This simple light weight entrance structure conceived by Bill Dunster Architects to provide a gateway to the Earth Centre. The building is engineered almost entirely from recycled material timber in both structural and mechanical terms.

The columns were manufactured from recycled telegraph poles and the glulam beams were made from small strips of low grade timber.
