Our Innovation Precinct has been sustainably designed to showcase innovative design and building practices to inspire more environmentally conscience living. Our demonstration homes maximise the use of recycled materials where possible. Where recycling or reusing wasn’t an option, other materials were chosen for their low environmental impact.
