Bringing together ecological design, natural building and regenerative practice
SBUK is pleased to support our colleagues at the Scottish Ecological Design Association (SEDA) by sharing details of their forthcoming conference.
Taking place from 18th - 20th September 2026 at Falkland Estate, Fife, this year's theme is:
Common Ground: Land, Buildings, Stories, and the Care We Share
The conference will bring together practitioners, researchers, land managers, craftspeople and communities to explore ecological design through talks, workshops, walks, storytelling, art and music.
For anyone interested in natural building, regenerative design and sustainable construction, it promises to be an inspiring weekend.
