Congratulations Scenport, TAS

On the outside, the use of different materials, the picture framed windows and the natural colours give these townhouses a distinctive character and also help to blend them into the bush setting. Inside, one of the most impressive elements is the fully retractable sliding door which seamlessly merges the indoors with the covered outdoor deck. Another clever use of space is the laundry hidden under the stairs. Extensive eaves, double glazing, and cross ventilation design make each townhouse more energy efficient and the use of Koolwall in construction gives them an energy rating of R1.4 which is above current BCA requirements.
