Description
Final Project for my degree at Leeds Metropolitan University, UK:
Surf Centre in Cayton Bay, a surf spot local to Scarborough on the North East Coast of England.
The project is built from the materials released into the bay by coastal erosion, which is a particular problem in the area and those found on or near the coast. I like to think of it as a "Found Materials" project. Using stone, driftwood, sheet materials, sheeps wool, spring water and seawater, which are all used on the site, electricity is generated by the sun, wind, waste materials and coppiced wood produced on-site.
The building materials are crafted by resident surfers and masons, who build the school using reclaimed stone, driftwood, and a lattice surfboard structure derived from the surfboards developed by Mike Sheldrake in the USA. (see www.sheldrake.net)
"As the bay recedes the site grows"
Technology Rationale 7-12 (13-17 to follow)

My appologies for the trench foundation comment... i am reading your presentation backwards! Oops.
Do you mean HEMPcrete in the foundations? If so did you look into this? I would imaging having hemp fibre in direct contact with any ground water would have seriously decreased its lifespan.
Did you look into cork insulation?
