Gold Coast sustainable kit home
This unique Queensland home came with its own individual requirements because of its location. Being built in the Eco Village in the Currumbin Valley, it was imperative that every material used in the build had to be both sustainable and non-toxic. Moulded on the style of a traditional Queensland cottage, the build incorporated recycled timber &

; including western red cedar, mixed hardwood and hoop pine, as well as Hardies cladding and eco-ply blend with a corrugated iron roof. To further add to the sustainability of the modified kit home, a range of natural heating and cooling features are used to balance out the temperature changes that accompany the location. To preserve heat, the living room features a seven-tonne blue metal rock, locally quarried, to attract the warmth of the sun through high fixed windows during the day and conserve it as the temperature drops. Add to this a range of other features tailored to create a natural home, and the build offers a true insight into the freedom that can be offered by an eco-friendly design.
