Utility sheds constructed from reused, high-quality materials to produce fun and interesting neighbourhood buildings.

The Jury says

This is an inspiring and clever way of reusing high-quality building materials to produce attractive and unique local architecture. The system is designed in a modular way and is able to track material usage, creating a valuable database of knowledge and material along the way.  Buildings that are normally quite ordinary can now have a well-designed, sustainable, low-tech add-on. There is also a social aspect to having local identity markers within each building. Market analysis has shown a very viable business is possible with this approach.
