-
Long Term Thinking
Everything we build and buy is high quality, low maintenance and as repairable as possible. The true definition of sustainability.
-
Ethical Comfort
We're proving that environmental consciousness and personal comfort aren't mutually exclusive.
-
Seeding the Future
We're not just thinking about the future - we're actively shaping it through our pioneering plastic recycling project.
This tiny home has been finished to our exceptionally high McIntyre standard - the Tiny Greenie builds on our vision! Experience warmth and comfort this year in New Zealand’s first European style passive solar tiny house.
Perched high above Wainui Bay you'll experience sunsets over the inlet - the best yet. Surrounded by native bush and the silence that only a remote retreat can deliver.
Tiny Greenie is our latest in our Greenie line of future-thinking eco-homes that you really have to experience first-hand. With a floorspace of 40 square metres (including mezzanines), Tiny Greenie is about as big as tiny gets. This home is sitting on a sturdy dual-axel trailer and can be moved to a new vantage on a whim.
Come stay and find the space to fully appreciate the deep and considered approach to modern low-impact living in a small space.
