Challenges and solutions

To achieve the look our client was after, we designed the commercial shed with a three-toned Colorbond cladding pattern. We also included supporting steelwork in the design for the 90/90/90 firewall requirements between each unit.

The building envelope for the new shed was situated over two title boundaries and a rear easement. Our design team needed to work closely with the architect to ensure that the shed would fit the site optimally.
