While most architecture is all straight lines and squared angles, the latest trend is curves.
They are often used to soften a buildings impact, helping the structure to meld into the surrounding landscape.

Buildings dominated by curves presents new challenges
​You tend to think of architecture as the look of the place, but it demands the complex contribution of engineering starting well below ground. Under any major building winds a complicated system of spaces and places for electricity, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, and other building services.

TS Constructions would like to congratulate GR & T Plasterers
on receiving  numerous awards for the plastering works on this project.

Take a look at some of the latest  sustainable homes located at "The Cape" 

The Cape Eco community is a master planned residential development on the South Coast of Victoria at Cape Paterson.  Eventually it will consist of over 200 homes surrounded by more than 50% of open, natural space, The Cape has very clear and prescriptive guidelines for all homes.  A minimum 7.5 star rating, 2.5kW PV Solar and 10,000 litres of water storage is mandatory.

​Australia’s premium sustainable housing project, The Cape, in Cape Paterson, has opened its doors to its newest 8.3-star edition, "Periwinkle". This carbon neutral, energy and water efficient coastal home sits within the top 1% of sustainable homes in Australia. The home features state of the art energy efficient design, construction and fit out, which combines to keep the home beautifully comfortable in all weather conditions, while reducing annual running costs to below $500 per annum, which is around 15% to 20% of the running costs of a state average home.

​In exciting news for the Cape, an independent 12-month study by RMIT University and analysis by leading not-for-profit RENEW has highlighted The Cape estate as a scalable blueprint for how the Australian housing industry can build affordable, energy efficient, carbon neutral homes that dramatically reduce energy bills, with consumers, the economy and the environment set to benefit.

It was well attended with approx 80 people from various municipalities, water boards and major building companies

The facility incorporates much better storage and first aid areas as
​well as a modern kitchen and state of the art training facilities.

​This year there will be TWELVE award-winning, precedent-setting, sustainable homes open at The Cape! With a long list of different builders and designers, each home offers a glimpse into a unique version of sustainable architecture and living.
