"This project (Crafers, Adelaide Hills) demonstrates an outstanding example of sustainable housing. Careful attention to sighting has enabled optimum use of orientation and minimised any disturbance to the property resulting in the rehabilitation of the natural spring and vegetation. A good use of reverse brick veneer construction coupled with good cross flow ventilation and ceiling fans makes this a very comfortable house in which to live. Careful use of recycled and plantation timbers as well as solar water heating minimise impacts on natural resources."
