21st Century sustainable living extension
Without doubt a sustainable living extension of alterations and contemporary additions to a traditional 1920 villa.
With attention to state-of-the-art sustainable design features and technologies.
Together with: thermal mass – concrete and rammed earth; solar evacuated tubes; hydronic in-floor heating; Climate Wizard evaporative cooling; underground cool pipes; grey water system; 60,000 litre rainwater tank; and water collecting ponds.
As can be seen the beautifully crafted spiral staircase by Adelaide maker Dusko Vidovic dramatically links the above-kitchen mezzanine to the large family/living area.
