1. Forest Hideaway Wins 2005 HIA Most Innovative Use

Nestled

3. XLERPLATE® Features In New TV Commercial |
On Sunday 5 June, BlueScope Steel launched a new

4. Eco Smart House on Show |
It
is now even easier for new Australian homes to
be sustainable and affordable in design thanks
to the new Eco Smart Sustainable House Project
launched in Melbourne in April this year. The
house uses the latest in energy efficient design
and sustainable building materials. Read how roofing

5. Flexibility In Functional Design |
Beauty
in architecture has long been valued as a central
part of our built environment, yet sadly, often
sacrificed if seen to be in conflict with its
traditional foe, functionality. The key has been
to find building materials that offer functional
properties with aesthetic qualities. Read how
COLORBOND® steel for walling provides both
functionality and beauty:
