Description

Our Narrabeen Relocatable Home involved the replacement of a relocatable home within Narrabeen Caravan Park, with a strong environmental focus on passive design and sustainable materials.
The build itself was mostly conducted off-site and craned in with linings and fixtures being completed in-place.
It involved the re-use of windows and all metal sheet cladding including the walls and roof from two separate projects that the contractor was demolishing at the time .
A spotted gum weather screen is overlayed on the recycled metal sheet cladding to shade the exterior and allow the heat to naturally vent away from the home.
The house incorporates a scooping curve to the ceiling with highlight windows that draw in light and allow hot air to rise away from the floor level and naturally vent out the windows.
All material selections have been chosen and finished with an environmental mindset that contributes to the low footprint, high-performing result.
