The owner’s brief was for an energy efficient house that would take them through to retirement and accommodate all the equipment needed for their extremely active and busy lifestyle.
They also needed a soundproof music room downstairs and two extra bedrooms for their children and visitors. This house was built from Timbercrete blocks that are made from a sustainable blend of recycled timber waste, sand, cement and binders. They are extremely energy efficient, provide thermal mass and are fire proof.
