Wetlands and Construction: An opportunity for Berlin-Brandenburg, examines how environmentally responsible paludiculture (wetland farming) cultivation can provide a source of renewable, carbon-capturing construction materials whilst regenerating peatland landscapes. Using the Sernitzmoor area within the German state of Brandenburg as a case study, this report explores how a land practice which promotes peatland carbon capture and the decarbonisation of the construction sector could be implemented at scale to deliver climatic, ecological and economic benefits. The project aims to contribute to the development of a new architectural vernacular: one whose aesthetics are rooted in circular and bio-based principles. The research seeks to demonstrate the potency of cross-industry and interdisciplinary collaborations, and the critical urgency of addressing the conditions and health of our landscapes.
