Custom Designs

The ecohut building system is versatile as well as economical. Subject to our workload, we are happy to consider custom design projects using ecohut Frame and Utility Modules. Additional design and drafting fees will apply and rates will be quoted on application.

A few design ideas

Courtyard House - two modules running north to south joined by another running east-west. The design captures eastern views while retaining good solar access to the interior and outdoor living rooms.

Town House - House for a long narrow north-facing block on flood-prone land. A blank acoustically insulated facade reduces the imapact of the busy street, while the eastern deck offers a private place overlooking a bush reserve.

Split Level - House for a sloping north-facing block with vehicle access from the south. Living, Kitchen, Bathroom, main Bedroom and a covered deck are on Level 1, with children's Bedrooms and a covered deck above the carspace

 

Three Bedroom home - A design featuring ecohut Gable frame modules set at right angles and connected by a covered walkway which also provides access to bathroom and toilet. Easily extendable, this design would suit purpose-built share house projects on small urban blocks.

Expanded dwelling - Four Skillion style modules linked by walkways to create an expanded dwelling for three adults and guests. The main building features a communal kitchen, bathroom, laundry and guest room. The satellite modules include generous living and sleeping areas each with ensuite bathrooms.

Commercial office building - Gable roof modules with multiple floor levels, lean-to roofs and features.
