House Notes – Pretty Perfect Pavilion
A self-contained prefabricated pod extends the living space without impacting the landscape on our NSW South Coast property. Tucked away on the 16-hectare bushland property, our Ecoshelta pavilion takes advantage of its jaw-dropping headland position while minimising the impact on the landscape and environment.
