If you’re building a granny flat on sloping land using Backyard Pods, you don’t necessarily need to excavate. Our customer at Ocean View, a bushfire-prone district north of Brisbane in QLD, chose to elevate their granny flat on one side, using extra-long piers, taking advantage of the breezes and views.

Not all Backyard Pods are intended as nice-looking granny flats, home offices, or studios. Many are for purposes where functionality is more important than appearance. This 4.5m x 10m flatpack project under construction in Queanbeyan NSW, near Canberra, is an industrial-looking storage facility and darkroom on residential land.
