Attenborough Nature Centre

Completed in 2005, Groundworks Architects' Attenborough Nature Centre is an RIBA award-winning visitor centre located within a complex of flooded gravel pits close to Nottingham. The building features a high percentage of off-site fabrication; 'breathing wall' construction and carefully select robust materials including engineered timber and low-formaldehyde plywood.
