Storm Resilient Homes
Our storm resilient homes are engineered to withstand Australia’s toughest weather. From cyclonic winds to flash flooding, we design for strength, safety, and comfort. With earth-sheltering, concrete arch structures, and proven detailing, resilience is not an afterthought—it’s embedded in every line we draw.
How We Build for Storms
Wind Resistance
Arched forms shed cyclonic winds instead of resisting them flat-on. Roofs and walls are tied down to resist uplift.
- Curved geometry reduces pressure zones
- Continuous concrete shells resist uplift
- Windows & doors protected from debris
Flood Awareness
We assess drainage, ground levels, and storm surge. Homes are sited to shed water, with entries and courtyards protected.
- Raised floor levels or earth berms
- Protected entries & courtyards
- Drainage designed into landscape
Material Robustness
We choose finishes that can take a beating from wind-driven rain, salt spray, and impact—minimising maintenance after storms.
- Non-combustible concrete & steel
- Durable seals & weatherproof junctions
- Low-maintenance, long-life finishes
Why Storm Resilient Homes Matter
Peace of Mind
Knowing your home is designed to resist cyclones, floods, and storms means safety for your family and security for your investment.
Lower Long-Term Costs
Less damage means fewer repairs. Resilient details reduce maintenance, insurance claims, and disruption to daily life.
Resilience in Context
Earth Shelter Principles
Embedding homes into landform reduces exposure and increases stability during storms.
Concrete Arches
Strong, efficient spans that naturally deflect wind and shed water.
Bushfire Responsive Design
Resilience doesn’t stop at storms—our homes also meet the challenges of fire-prone landscapes.
Common Questions on Storm Resilience
Do resilient homes cost more?
Initial costs may be slightly higher, but long-term savings from reduced damage and maintenance outweigh the difference.
Can resilience look beautiful?
Absolutely. Our designs prove resilience can be elegant—integrating curves, courtyards, and natural materials seamlessly.
