A Site for Change Part 1 Project 2023 Cameron Wilkie-Allan University of Reading | UK Placed within the transition between urban and rural landscape, the project challenges both sustainable architecture and sustainable land use.Placing the project within this rural environment enables the important role of protest to be reinforced, protest activities are intertwined with the context as the once restricted site becomes public. My programme focusses on the right to roam campaign and the eradication of wild camping in the UK. These gain prominence through the project enabling the authoritarian rule on the natural landscape to be questioned. Becoming a bastion for such activities creating space for organising protests, community gatherings and education on climate activism - A site for change.Materially the project particularly focuses on establishing a constant symbiosis with the rural landscape through the sustainable use of timber in its natural and raw state. Toxic coatings have been designed out. Sustainability isn’t only about new solutions, learning from historic practices is a vital part of the solution to the climate crisis.The architecture utilised turns the natural defects and variations within timber to advantage, using often overlooked and wasted parts to create a circular, closed loop of material that utilises zero glues and instead employs dowel, peg or timber joined materials.
