The brief: To create a healthy and sustainable home using hempcrete throughout the structure in conjunction with other recycled/low carbon products where applicable. The Result: A high quality build using sustainable building practices including Hempcrete as the main component for the wall structures. Low carbon ‘Envisia’ concrete was used for the concrete slabs and recycled timber used for stair handrails.
THE BRIEF: To construct an architectural designed home with country/rustic charm, along with having an improved thermal efficiency and use of Low VOC products.
THE RESULT: The project was completed in June 2019 slightly behind schedule, however the clients love the detail in the finishes provided and regardless of the delays are still happy with the finished product. There was an emphasis put on the use of zero or low VOC products and alternative glues and sealants were used along with some natural paints sourced from a supplier in Byron Bay.
