Residential Award Winner - Wilco Precast/Bridgeman Concrete
THIS year’s NZ Concrete Society Concrete Awards once again included a wide range of projects covering the scope of concrete applications. Several of the winning and highly commended projects utilised Golden Bay Cement product. We have featured here one of those projects.
This home shows the appeal of the durability and comfort attributes of insulated concrete as a building material. This unique home has five levels that are spread over three storeys, and is comprised of 90 precast panels finished to paint quality on both interior and exterior faces. Oriented to ensure that passive solar heating would be enhanced, the home has demonstrated remarkable consistency in comfortable daytime interior temperatures. A stunning example of Precast Concrete at its finest.
