Byron Bay Circular Design Renovation

Renovating a 1987 rural-farm near Byron-Bay into an in-demand airBnB. The modernized interior beholds more than the eye sees. About 70% of the used materials are upcycled, as they were sourced from the tip and second-hand market-places. This circular economy design required a different approach from the conventional design process, as the design was driven by what materials and products where available, rather than endless catalogue options.

Wooden cabinets and a pergola were salved by redesign, repairs and a good paint-job. The kitchen and bathroom tiling came from various supplies of discarded subway-tiles. Mixing their different shades became a feature.

The second phase is an outdoor living-room, with covered parking and permaculture.
