Laag voor Laag publication

Our project SILO has been featured in the foresight section of the research publication Laag voor Laag (Layer for Layer): Biobased Insulation Materials in Mid-High Residential Buildings, which showcases  insightful examples of biobased residential architecture across Europe. Download the publication here (for free).

‍

SILO is designed with a strong focus on biobased materials, incorporating hemp-based insulation among cross-laminated timber (CLT) for the construction and biocomposite materials for the facade.
