The 2006 Adnams brewery distribution warehouse in Suffolk, a feat of sustainable building design, is a reassuringly functional example of a 'hemp concrete' structure. Although I am generally a supporter of alternative builing materials, I am particularly impressed by their translation to mainstream uses such as this. It also features a 6000 square metre sedum roof incorporating local wildflowers and wild grasses, as detailed at http://www.livingroofs.org/
