Seeding Change
Visionary Timber Architecture at Hooke Park, 1981–2001
Hooke Park in west Dorset is a woodland campus uniting progressive approaches to forestry, architecture, engineering, and education. Founded in the early 1980s by John Makepeace and the Parnham Trust, and now stewarded by the Architectural Association School of Architecture, it pioneered new timber construction using locally sourced roundwood. The initiative produced three experimental buildings: the Prototype House, the Workshop, and Westminster Lodge. Drawing on extensive archival material, Seeding Change traces their development, revealing collaborations between foresters, engineers, and architects, and offering a compelling case study that reimagines how sustainable, material-led design can shape the future of building practices.
