Martin Richman worked with architect Ray Perry of Faulks Perry Culley & Rech on this new £78m waste-to-energy plant outside Birmingham. Richman proposed and related the materials, lighting and colours to the form and function of the plant to create a new landmark, transforming the huge scale and functional mass. The building is visible at night by drivers on the nearby busy A45 linking Coventry to Birmingham, as well as from the air. The project was completed in 1997. Client: Birwelco Ltd (Tyseley Waste Disposal, Birmingham). Award value £10,000.
