Project Brief
The client and team at Energy Efficient Homes came to StrawSIPS to integrate our panel system into their process and method for creating high performance, energy efficient homes on a reasonable and known budget and using a range of different materials and details from standard NZ construction and European construction principles. This project showcases how well our panel system can integrate into a house design that we have minimal input into, and shows that architects, designers, builders and clients can work with StrawSIPS on any project.
