About the Work
Each year, hundreds of thousands of Australian homes are destroyed or damaged
by extreme weather. And each year nothing changes. We just pick up the pieces, rebuild the same way, and hope it won’t happen again.
The only way to change this cycle of destruction and heartache, is to completely change the way we build our homes. So that’s what we proposed to Suncorp, one of Australia’s largest insurers.
‘One House To Save Many’ is the world’s first home designed, scientifically tested, and built to withstand cyclones, floods and bushfires.
To create it, we brought leading experts in home resilience together for the first time. Combining their knowledge to create groundbreaking resilience features. Like mesh screens to protect against fire and debris. Water diverting retaining walls. And air pressure relief systems to prevent cyclone damage.
The project launched with a national ad campaign and prime time documentary. The advertising drove people to an online hub where they could find out how to make their own homes more resilient, and explore Suncorp products. And the learnings from One House were then made available to the public and presented to government institutions and national building companies.
Led by Suncorp, The Insurance Council of Australia has now launched ‘Project Resilience’. Aiming to embed resilience into the National Construction Code by 2025. And the Australian Federal Government has announced a 600 million dollar resilience fund for new disaster preparation and mitigation programs.
And as a result of the learnings, Suncorp created a new product. In an industry-first, Suncorp Insurance launched the “Build it Back Better” promise that applies the resilience learnings from One House to every home they rebuild.
This wasn’t just about building One House, it was about changing the way we build every house.
