Grace Quansah's video: U Build Visit WAPPY March 2021

WAPPY was thrilled to welcome to Lockdown Life, Friday 12th March, Architect, Nick Newman, Brand Strategist Ben Pozi-Quansah & Designer, Hannah Burroughs, of the award-winning company, U-Build for its ‘Building Back Better’ session. As featured on Grand Designs ‘The Street’, U - Build is made up of team of a skilled architects who have designed a construction (building) system to build whatever their customers want, eg, a compact house, something for the garden like an outdoor studio or office space. Here is the video of the session which includes U-Build's promotional video. An exciting memory was when Nick did a practical activity and challenge which involved suspending a can (e.g., of beans, tomatoes, or another food item etc..) on a single piece of paper. The challenge was to make the tallest tower and keep the can suspended for as long as possible. Images of the different ''towers' the families produced are included in this video to the soundtrack of Ikson's 'Paradise' (2018).
