Description from Simon Laws:
This holiday house aims to create a kind of luxury campsite
amongst mature Bloodwoods and Cabbage Palms near the ocean at, Seventeen
Seventy, a town just south of Gladstone and the most northerly surf break on
the east Australian coast.

Living and sleeping pods along with a bath house were built in
Brisbane, close to construction services and transported the 500km to site
fully completed. The prefabricated parabolic roofed structure and decks were
erected onsite and connect the various pods through a large central outdoor
living and dining area. Aramax roof sheeting free spans the two identical, but
reversed, hardwood self-braced trusses.

Natural oiled timbers and other low-finished materials create aneutral environment that along with the dynamic indoor/outdoor spaces, allow
the maximum enjoyment of the wonderful bushland setting and mild sub-tropical
climate. Rainwater tanks, solar hot water and electrical panels and a passive
energy efficient design make the house largely self sufficient.
