There are a number of standard layouts onto which a range of exteriors and interiors can be fitted, reflecting the owners’ design / life choices.

The three principle plan layouts are easily modified to create a range of alternative accommodation arrangements.

Its flexibility allows for change to occur with minimum physical intervention resulting in an increase in the ability of individuals and communities to recycle and re-use their housing assets.

Density and urban form: Livinhome offers low-rise, high density housing that maintains a good relationship with street. The design is transferable, scalable and is suitable for single houses through to urban blocks.
