Sunnyside Road: Dairy Flat

This new studio and gymnasium for Nicole and Ladhu is now nearly 90% completed and the ply linings and ceilings are all in place. The building has been painted on the outside a beautiful deep red / brown and the solar collectors, drainage absorbtion system and waste water processing system are all fully installed. The electrical wiring is all sheilded to avoid elctromagnetic radiation "leaking" into the interior. Plumbing and drainage are all completed and the sustainably harvested, NZ grown, 20mm thick eucalyptus fastigata flooring is completed.  
This accessory building has great valley views and a lovely protected northerly aspect.
