Cory Environmental Visitor Centre
About The Project
In 2009 we won an invited competition to design a new visitor centre for
the proposed Thurrock Thameside Nature Park for Essex Wildlife Trust. The park
is a redevelopment of the former Mucking landfill site, and aims to restore the
natural wildlife habitats of the area. It will be part of a series of linked green
open spaces along the River Thames. The Visitor Centre provides information and education resources for all
visitors to the park as well as providing a place of rest, a cafe, a shop and spectacular
panoramic views from the main hall and roof. The innovative circular design demonstrates
low energy sustainable design and technology for visitors.
