This home has been built in a rural area outside Richmond surrounded by mature trees and apple orchards. Peter Olerenshaw has designed this home to maximise the use of sunlight throughout the house by using high-level clear storey windows and plenty of glazing on the north side of the house. Most of the Hybrid home eco features have been incorporated into the design of this home.

  • Double glazing with low E
  • Thermal mass coloured concrete floor
  • Non-toxic building materials
