Bushfire Recovery House – Duffy, ACT

Project Brief

Bushfire Recovery House – Ecoshelta: A rebuild after the devastating Canberra bushfires this project used a hybrid Ecoshelta AAC panel system with fourteen pods around five courtyards and a central bushfire resistant masonry core, with a master bedroom suite. The internal walls are rammed earth in the core and have a heat recycling system. Integrating the AAC masonry systems with the Ecoshelta alloy frame was successful and the details have been re-used on later hybrid buildings.
