It’s not every day that a sustainable, innovative construction company is invited to present at the Royal Academy of Arts — but that’s exactly what happened last summer. The Royal Academy welcomed Neil Stephen from the Hemp Block Company to speak about the use of hemp blocks during the 2025 Summer Exhibition’s Architecture Afternoon.
We’re proud to share that Neil’s presentation — and our hemp building blocks — were warmly received by the audience. The session sparked thoughtful questions, lively discussion, and some fantastic feedback from architects and designers interested in low-carbon, natural building solutions.
Moments like this highlight what makes the Hemp Block Company so special: a commitment to forward-thinking construction, genuinely sustainable materials, and a passion for helping shape a healthier built environment.
