Boston’s Bog Oak Recovery Centre Part 1 Project 2024 Patryk Gwiazda University of Nottingham Nottingham | UK Boston’s Bog Oak Recovery Centre looks to manufacture modern products by combining recovered local bog wood and recycled plastic, utilising the river on the site for transport and trade, re-instating the historic trade links, which made Boston an influential town in the 13th century.The project is designed around a concrete and steel structural frame that is expressed in the design. The envelope of the building is lightweight and de-constructable, allowing the building to be taken apart and its parts to be used in new projects. The building design also adapts to floods, the base of the building is split into five elements, which float when a flood occurs, these design features are part of a long-term adaptive strategy to react to climate change and rising sea levels.
