The design is based upon an industry for producing natural pre-cast construction materials such as rammed earth panels and hempcrete blocks. Materials will be produced on site where possible such as growing hemp.

Another value for the proposal is to Educate. Due to the uncommon materials local builders may require training on the methods required, which will be provided on site. A cafe located in the Corbridge inspired kiln will also be available. The space will serve guests when they are on workshop days as well as people passing through the local community.
