The two and a half storey house completed in 2011 is located at the highest point of Scarborough Beach Road in Doubleview and is the first straw bale building that has been approved and built in the City of Stirling and one of the first in the metropolitan area.
The combination of passive solar design, straw bale walls, insulated sandwich roof panels, and double glazing make the house comfortable all year round – without the need for heating or cooling. Together with the solar hot water, solar PV, efficient lighting and appliances this house generates more power than is used by its six occupants. The home’s compact modern design allows maximum flexibility and adaptability with the capacity to accommodate two families within 170 sqm and adjust to the changing needs of the 6 occupants. More about Christian and Deepti’s owner-builder journey can be found on their blog: www.wisionhouse.blogspot.com.
