Australia's leading sustainable architecture and landscape design magazine for inspirational stories on local and international houses, gardens and profiles.
Welcome to the 103rd issue of green. Prefabricated housing has come a long way in the last decade. There are now a number of companies dedicated to offsite construction, and more architects combining this with bespoke solutions. For many, the attraction of a controlled environment and all the benefits that it brings, combined with less time and less impact on site, is compelling.
In this issue we look at four architect-driven projects, both locally and in New Zealand.
Also in this issue a collection of houses that vary in scale and expenditure but unite in their desire for low impact living. Whether that be in their restrained approach to renovations or their right- from-the get-go intentions to build for a low energy future.
Our profile highlights a group of new wave architects in the UK who are looking at the synergy between architecture and agriculture and how we can essentially grow architecture.
Meanwhile in Melbourne a school with a history of activism appointed landscape architects to tear up a hot concrete yard. They turned it into a space of native plants and permeable surfaces, using the torn-up slabs to create height and structure. The resourceful solution proves a tight budget can force creativity and result in a more sustainable outcome.
Finally, in our Not Wasted section, a charming changing shed on a harbourside promenade in Auckland. Using materials made from salvaged ocean plastics and packaging waste, alongside waste timber shingles, slipping into your togs has never been more enticing.
