Construction of 5 GETSmart homes at 33-37 Kenbrae Avenue, Glenorchy. Two key
principals of GETSmart Homes are Adaptable and Sustainable housing.
houses built on level blocks, with easy access to community services;
open plan rooms that provide circulation space;
reduced hallways resulting in reduced building, furnishing and heating costs;
level entrances, with steps, making it easier and safer for older people and
families with babies or young children;
larger garaging areas providing extra utility or workshop space;
larger bedrooms;
wider doorways, making it easier to move furniture around the home;
hobless showers; and
power points and switches at accessible heights, which are easier for everyone
to use and safer for young children.
