The Avora 34 Shows Design And Energy Efficiency Needn’t Be Mutually Exclusive

‘The Avora 34 display home and Bristile solar roofing solution prove that sophisticated design and energy efficiency needn’t be mutually exclusive’



We are proud of The Avora 34 for many reasons, the fact that it is the first net zero display home in NSW is a big one but that we have been able to deliver an energy efficient home that is as beautiful as this, well that’s the real winner.
Working on this project with the team at Bristile has been a very exciting one – the technology and their solar roofing solution are second to none. Bristile’s solar roofing solution is a key feature of the sleek new Avora 34 and the home has been constructed with a flat roof, allowing for the discreet installation of the solar panels so they are invisible from the street.
“The beautiful interiors are a testament to Icon Homes’ knowledge of current design trends,” says Taylor. “Their passion for detail and craftsmanship is evident in the use of beautiful stone on the façade, the floating timber staircase, the use of vertical cladding as a feature throughout the home and the stunning timber ceiling in the upstairs living room.”All this has been achieved without jeopardising Avora 34’s net zero rating. Taylor adds: “Icon Homes should be very proud of this home. It has really set the benchmark for display homes across Sydney.”
