This Month's Feature Article
1. Pyramid of Steel

A new eye-catching gypsum storage silo can be seen in the Sydney Ports facility in Rozelle, New South Wales. Constructed for Gypsum Resources Australia (GRA), the 4,800 square metre store is an unusual shape and design that overcame some challenging building constraints.

2. Funky Retreat with Caravan Style

The rounded shapes of 1960s caravans were the inspiration behind the dramatic design of an upmarket holiday home in Hepburn Springs, Victoria. Designed especially for professional couples on romantic weekend getaways, the home offers luxury accommodation overlooking a stunning state forest. Find out how designer Graham Jones used COLORBOND® steel to achieve the home's unique shape:
