WWF gridshell project progresses
4 February 2013Work is progressing on WWF-UK’s new £13m headquarters, which is to feature a striking curved timber gridshell roof.
The timber roof is currently being erected at the new Sustainable Living Planet Centre in Woking, Surrey.
The 80m-long gridshell will cover an open plan workplace for 300 staff on two levels, a 150-seat conference venue, education facilities and the WWF Experience exhibit.
The building, situated over a former car park, aims to maximise on-site sustainable features and will target a BREEAM Outstanding rating.
