The SupaShak is designed to have ‘fun’. Designed to break down the barriers to the environment, and allowing the user to ‘reconnect with nature’. A funky galley kitchen sits alongside an open living dining social
space that spills to the outside via large windows and sliding panels. The raking ceiling opens up the space and gives views to the skies to see the deep blue summer hues, or the next st
orm gathering. Raking ceilings and high glazing for light and ventilation are used through the bedrooms, bunk room and a cool stainless steel bath / laundry add to the holiday feel. Get up with the sun, share some pancakes, go for a surf, shower down and grab an afternoon snooze with the bush outside, that’s what it’s all about! The floor-plan is cleverly designed to maximise the feeling of space yet minimise ongoing maintenance and cleaning. The design is based around a modular system that allows full customisation of claddings, glazing and openings as the customer requires. The design utilises best practice environmental design
allowing maximum ‘free heat’ in winter from the sun, and large overhangs to keep out the sun in summer. The ‘thin’ floor plan allows the long side of SupaShak to be sited to access north sun, with the short sides facing east and west to minimise any heat gain in summer. The SupaShak can be stacked next to each other to create a larger house or shack, and can be stacked on top of each other to create two storey arrangements.
