Unfortunately due to the extremely high winds that are expected this weekend, the Sustainable Glasgow Landing site - where the COP26 House is located - won't be open this weekend. Sorry to disappoint anyone planning to visit tomorrow or Sunday - we'll be open again on Monday 9am

Do you feel calmer when in a space created using natural materials? A number of studies have shown that the health benefits are significant. It's just one of the reasons why we made the #COP26House out of timber - read more here: beyondzerohomes.co.uk/the-advantages…

It was great to have the opportunity to show Scottish Government minister Mairi Gougeon around the COP26 House, and show her what was possible right now using standard materials and existing skills. #ZeroCarbon #homegrowntimber

Great to welcome Patrick Harvie 🇪🇺🌈 to the zero carbon #COP26 House. He met BSW Timber's Hamish Macleod, architect Peter Smith from @RJA_LLP & Scottish Forestry to highlight the need to use more timber in construction as it's the best low carbon material around! 🌳🌲

The built environment is taking centre stage at #COP26 today. If the conversations we've had in the #COP26House this week are anything to go by, there seems to be real momentum behind positive change in the sector. #stubbornlyoptimistic #ZeroCarbon #COP26House

Great to see the #COP26 House getting a well deserved push on BBC Scotland News. Well done everyone who worked on the Beyond Zero Homes project. It shows what superb innovative building with timber can achieve in reaching #NetZero. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…

Life in a net zero home looks good from here 😍 The COP House by Beyond Zero Homes built from wood sourced in Scotland uses a process that captures sunlight and body warmth meaning very little additional heating will be required 👏🏚️ #ScotlandIsNow #COP26 ow.ly/XfpP50GM0wa

We were delighted to host Robert Llewellyn RL_ST at the #COP26House a couple of days ago to film their special COP26 edition of the Fully Charged Show: youtu.be/DfDNkKBcudQ

we agree zero carbon house - and that's exactly why we built the zero carbon #cop26house, to demonstrate that it can be done using standard materials and readily available skills. There's no excuse!

HIDDEN HEROES Every detail in #COP26House was consciously chosen - and not least the fixings made by Rothoblaas UK . They focus not just on design and quality, but also reversability - for easy deconstruction at end of life. beyondzerohomes.co.uk/hidden-heroes/ #circularsolutions #zerocarbon
