The
ruralZED Project
The ruralZED project built at Holmans old factory in Camborne by the
Cornwall Sustainable Building Trust. This design won a competition to
provide affordable, sustainable housing in the County. Planning
permission for the first two houses has been granted in the Newquay
growth area. The Sustainable Trust provided support by publicising this
project, researching and providing items for the interior. One of our
Trustees supervised the build.
