It is nice then to now play our part in providing our understanding on natural building matters. Please phone or email us.
Green Retrofit
Refurbish & Repairs done with Reduce, Reuse & Recycle in mind. The UK’s existing housing stock has got a lot of work in store to meet the UK’s targets to get to net Carbon by 2050. To help meet that requirement, we have been trained as part of the Future Proof initiative;
in insulation;
ventilation;
natural materials;
CO2 and embodied energy in construction .
Creative workhub
Come and share our hot desks, creative co-work space located on the Somerset / Dorset / Wiltshire border.
We have office space, rehearsal / yoga space, shipping container classrooms , yard space all surrounded by fields with wildlife, fruit trees, vegetable patches and ponds.
What is a Natural Build?
A natural build involves a range of building systems and materials that place major emphasis on sustainability. Ways of achieving sustainability through natural building focus on durability and the use of minimally materials that are plentiful or from renewable resources, as well as those that, while recycled or salvaged, produce healthy living environments and maintain indoor air quality.
At Green Brick Road we apply these principals to all our work from small half day jobs repairing or maintaining an existing property through to constructing a building.

“
Natural buildings are a tangible expression of a way of life. They should respond to the need of sustaining our environment as well as how we want them to function in our use.
Most aspects of our existence are played out – and leave behind some trace – in buildings and spaces.

About us
By Our Houses You Will Know Us
The buildings of Native Americans encoded …their tribal view of the cosmos. Many Indian narratives tell of a “Distant Time”..when a “First House” was bestowed upon a tribe..Some tribes likened the creation of the world itself to the creation of a house , strengthening the metaphoric correspondance between dwelling and cosmos. Thereafter Native American peoples held the ritual power to renew their cosmos through rebuidling, remodeling , or reconsecrating their architecture.”
from Native American Architecture – Peter Nabokov & Robert Easton
How to Honour the Seven Generations.
Some Native American tribes have a term “seventh generation.” The words come from the Constitution of the Iroquois Nation.
A common, summarized and short version of “seventh generation” derived from the Constitution of the Iroquois Nation is
“In every deliberation, we must consider the impact on the seventh generation… even if it requires having skin as thick as the bark of a pine….
…return to the way of the Great Law which is just and right. Look and listen for the welfare of the whole people and have always in view not only the present but also the coming generations, even those whose faces are yet beneath the surface of the ground — the unborn of the future Nation.”
Inside – Outside Space Specialists
We specialise in creating outdoor spaces that have some of the comforts and facilities of indoors combined with the health giving properties of outdoor fresh air. The shocking fact is that the air inside your home is generally more polluted than the air outside.
