Case Studies

There are a number of great examples of sustainable housing in Townsville. The below links demonstrate that sustainable housing can be adjusted to a variety of different situations and lifestyles, whether it be a new home, a residential apartment or a renovation.

• Echlin Street Case Study (599kB)
   
• Home Renovations Case Study (304kB)
   
• The Patteson House Case Study (613kB)

Not only do the case studies demonstrate how you can save energy, water and money, they also show the high standard of living that is possible by living sustainably. The Echlin Street Apartments won two awards at the Regional Royal Australian Institute of Architects Awards 2006.
