The structure uses ARKit’s panelised system which provides end users with a superior quality internal environment, and a beautiful external finish.

Unlike most prefabricated construction companies who only use readily available products by other companies, ARKit’s panelised systems combine a durable external cladding, ultra-efficient insulation and dependable structural integrity to extremely high tolerances. Other sustainable features of the rural retreat include:

Supplementing passive performance with proven, high efficiency technology
