Bicheno Bushbuck - Hempcrete on the East Coast of Tasmania

This off-grid home exudes all things sustainability. No greenwashing, just an honest approach to home building.

Hempcrete walls and an earthen floor, salvaged slate tiles from Piermont in Swansea, salvaged wharf timbers for the post and beam structure. All protected by Pro Clima membranes.

The Project: A high-performance retreat on the East Coast, utilising the unique thermal and sustainable properties of Hempcrete.

On-Site Strategy: Working with specialised formwork and natural materials requires a high level of coordination. We are collaborating closely with the build team to ensure the hempcrete envelope is monolithic and thermally consistent, providing the owners with a healthy, breathable sanctuary.
