Sharing ideas on sustainable housing, good architecture and design, and the Superpod project
sharing ideas around the superpod ethos ie modernist architecture, good design, doing more with less, prefab, modular housing, technical performance data like thermal bridging, insulation; how to bring into low cost or affordable housing, predesigned housing with flexibility for the owner to customise, zero energy or low energy housing, ratings systems, carbon footprint, environmentally conscious

What's your favoured building material? Concrete? Timber? or Steel?
Sustainable Steel has to be part of our future Sustainable steel is something we at Superpod believe in. Energy efficiency is something we believe in. Healthy indoor air is something we believe in.

Passive house buildings can help save the planet.
Due to the shortage of timber framing, people are turning to steel. We love steel anyway. We always thought it had a cradle to cradle place!
So we can do certified passive house buildings in steel.
Passive house buildings save on energy regardless of the material you use! You don’t need timber and don’t need a concrete slab.

Good morning from Superpodhome in Australia. Can you hear the kookaburras?

One of our upcoming Superpod projects is an inner city narrow site - not much wider than this one in Japan.
Certified passive house? That’s our goal...

When form follows function in perfect harmony....
When a design is right, it doesn’t need to change.

Australian landscape - wintry sun. Design to save energy. Design to save nature. Design to save beauty.
Recycling old redgum railway sleepers on a Superpod property on the Bass Coast.
Good for retaining walls!

Steel lasts a long time on a building! Here’s one someone prepared earlier in Australia...
Ruins from the past. We want to make buildings that last. Did you know passivehouse buildings have cleaner air and don’t recirculate contaminants like ‘normal’ buildings?
We design certified passive house buildings with our patent pending facade system. Do you want to cut the costs of power while maximising comfort and health indoors? Something with a long term sustainable outcome? With good design, modular and prefab elements, and using physics as our guide, we can produce zero energy or low energy buildings, easily with an 8-9 star energy rating (residential)! But that’s not all. We can do a complete furniture fitout using our award winning designs at podmarket.com.au. Contact us at [email protected] for your next project.
