Team Dunedin is designing and building a ‘mainstream’ sustainable re-locatable home. Each year our carpentry students, under supervision of our staff, build three re-locatable homes. By choosing materials, services and building methods that offer long term efficiency than what is currently being undertaken, the Otago Polytechnic (and our partners) will make one of these using maximum sustainable practices. As such, we hope to offer an accessible pathway to more sustainable living and building by acquiring knowledge and sharing this knowledge.

We will also help educate our community, our stakeholders, our local suppliers (and ourselves!)by doing so, and ensure the design maximises social, as well as environmental sustainability.
