Earley Resource Centre, Reading

This innovative design for the local community on a Greenfield site was built
following a voluntary partnering agreement between the client, contractor and design consultants. The product is an environmentally sensitive scheme which incorporates energy efficiency and reduced running costs which are achieved by using natural ventilation, high insulation levels, low energy lighting and a rainwater harvesting system.

The centre was short listed for the RIBA Awards for Architecture 2004 and the Ibstock Downland Prize for Architects 2004.

Client: Crescent Community Association
Architect: Jessop & Cook
