Raised on stilts and wrapped in floor to ceiling glass on the upper storey, this home makes the most of an elevated site and its surrounding views. CKS Projects, custom home builder across Wollongong and the Illawarra, works with stilt and elevated construction methods on sites where flood overlays, sloping terrain or coastal setbacks call for a raised building platform rather than a conventional slab on ground design.
The full height glazing on the second storey brings in natural light and framed outlooks while the elevated structure below allows for undercroft parking, storage or shaded outdoor space. Building this way requires close collaboration between structural engineers, certifiers and our construction team to ensure the platform, footings and glazing systems all meet NSW building codes, wind loading requirements and bushfire or flood provisions where relevant, common considerations for elevated sites across the Illawarra coastline.
Get in touch with our Wollongong based team today to discuss how a stilt or elevated build could suit your site.
