    Eden Project Dundee – bringing regenerative aspirations to life 28 August 2023 | thestructuralengineer.org Project focus Eden Project Dundee The revelation that the Eden Project is piloting the use of regenerative design on one of its new outpost projects is unlikely to stop anyone in their tracks.

    This globally recognised educational charity has long been acknowledged for its sustainability credentials, since the original vision of its founders transformed an abandoned clay quarry in Cornwall into a visitor attraction aimed at bringing humans and nature closer together.
