Verandahs For Passive Cooling

A long verandah is not just a stylish addition to your outdoor space, but also serves a practical purpose. During hot summer months, a deep verandah is effective in shielding your external walls and windows from direct sunlight. As a result, it helps to lower your home's ambient temperature, reducing your reliance on energy to cool your home.

Alfresco Areas For Entertaining

A spacious alfresco area directly connected to your home's main living area or kitchen is the ideal location to enjoy your summer. With ample space to accommodate outdoor furniture, such as a dining table or outdoor lounge, an alfresco area can easily become your primary relaxing and entertaining space during the warmer months. Take a look at our home designs and imagine spending your summer chatting with friends and enjoying quality family time in the alfresco area of your choice. You can also upgrade your alfresco area to feature a fully enclosed ceiling and ceiling fans to make it feel like an additional room of your house.
