In the heart of Jindabyne’s snowy wonderland, a remarkable project beautifully marries sustainability, warmth, and craftsmanship. Chapman Constructions Snowy Mountains has crafted a stunning horse stable that would serve its purpose and stand as a beacon of eco-friendliness in the community. The secret ingredient to this project’s success? Sustainable and reclaimed railway sleepers supplied by the renowned Off The Rails, Byron Bay.
The Foundation of Excellence
Durability and sustainability are key considerations when constructing a horse stable in an area known for its snowy winters. Chapman Constructions Snowy Mountains understood this perfectly when they embarked on this project. Their choice of materials played a pivotal role in the outcome, and that’s where Off The Rails came into the picture.
A Sustainable Vision
At the heart of this project was a commitment to sustainability. Jindabyne is not just a breathtakingly beautiful place; it’s also home to a tight-knit community that values eco-conscious living. Chapman Constructions Snowy Mountains wanted to create something that would benefit the horses and minimise their environmental footprint.
Off The Rails specialises in supplying reclaimed railway sleepers, which are eco-friendly and add a unique rustic charm to any project. These sleepers are given a second life, reducing the demand for new timber and minimising waste. By choosing reclaimed materials – this project exemplified recycling principles and sustainable design. They’ve used 440 AA grade milled sleeper halves, each measuring 200mm x 60mm x 2450mm, and transformed a horse stable into an absolute masterpiece.
Timber’s Warm Embrace
One of the project’s standout features is its use of timber, which adds a touch of rustic elegance and brings warmth to the stable. In a snowy area like Jindabyne, this is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. Timber has the remarkable ability to insulate, keeping the stable cozy during the harshest winter days. It also provides a natural and inviting atmosphere for the horses.
A Stable for All Seasons
The results? Nothing short of incredible! The stable now stands as a testament to craftsmanship, sustainability, and timeless design. The horse stable is not just a structure; it’s a work of art. It stands proudly as a testament to craftsmanship, sustainability, and timeless design. Thanks to reclaimed railway sleepers, it’s a durable creation that will endure many seasons.
