See the latest in AWS Designer Notes Series – Bundaroo Street House in Bowral, NSW.

This is a fantastic refurbishment of the University of Tasmania, which was originally designed in the early 20th Century. The AWS range of ThermalHEART aluminium windows and doors were utilised due to Tasmania’s extreme climate- hot in summer and cold in winter.

Perched atop Cobbitty’s hill, ‘The Base’ is an outstanding contemporary dwelling that respectfully integrates into the expansive greenery of its stunning setting. The architectural vision centred around capitalising on the expansive views, demanded generous glazing, but the Cobbitty climate of high 30s in the Summer and winter lows of 6-8 degrees – necessitated exceptional thermal performance.
