The Hillside Project  The Hillside Project is an exclusive contemporary residential dwelling to be built at 40 Hawker Avenue, Belair, South Australia, during 2008. The location is perfect... the 2,941 square metre property fronts onto the magnificent Mount Lofty Ranges, with extensive views over the Adelaide coast. The night lights of southern Adelaide and Glenelg are spectacular.
Whilst enjoying a temperate climate, Hillside is exposed to gully winds and cold winter temperatures. With hot, dry summers and cold, gusty winters, the challenge is to create a comfortable environment, requiring minimal heating and cooling. |

Hillside benefits from off-site manufacture
Hillside's entire wall structure (precast sandwich panels, window systems and internal walls) will be manufactured in purpose-built factories, then delivered to site and craned into position. Off-site manufacture has long been recognised both in Australia and internationally, as offering numerous benefits to all parties in construction. Off-site manufacture offers better quality control (meaning less defects), more efficient site processes (with less clutter and activity on site), better control of health and safety, more environmentally friendly manufacture (with minimal waste, fewer deliveries, reduced noise and less dust) and lower costs (due to faster construction). |
