Off-Grid Shipping Container Home

This project involved transforming a shipping container into a comfortable, functional off-grid home located on a rural farm. Our goal was to create a sustainable living space while making the most of reclaimed and upcycled materials, reducing waste and giving existing materials a new purpose.

The exterior was finished with a creative blend of recycled cladding, resulting in a unique design that complements the surrounding landscape while showcasing the possibilities of sustainable construction. Throughout the build, we focused on innovative solutions that balanced durability, functionality and environmental responsibility.

Designed to operate independently of traditional utilities, the home features a rooftop solar power system and a composting toilet, allowing it to function efficiently with a minimal environmental footprint. Every aspect of the project reflected our commitment to building with sustainability in mind, without compromising on quality or comfort.

This project is a great example of how thoughtful design, creativity and practical building techniques can transform a simple shipping container into an attractive, self-sufficient home that blends seamlessly into its rural setting.

Durra Panel Acoustic Studio Installation

Our team completed the installation of a Durra Panel Acoustic Studio Kit within an existing shed in Melbourne, transforming the space into a high-performance acoustic studio.

The modular Durra Panel system was quick and efficient to install, allowing us to create a professional acoustic environment with excellent sound absorption and insulation. Designed for easy assembly and disassembly, the panels provide outstanding acoustic performance while remaining practical and adaptable for future modifications.

One of the standout features of this product is its sustainability. Made from 100% compressed straw, Durra Panels are an environmentally friendly building material that is easy to work with, durable, and manufactured to a high standard. They offer an excellent alternative to conventional building products without compromising on quality or performance.

This was a project our team genuinely enjoyed. It combined innovative sustainable construction with precision workmanship, and the finished studio demonstrates just how effective Durra Panels are at creating exceptional acoustic spaces. The video showcases the impressive sound insulation achieved through the installation.

Professional Tiling

Our team delivers high-quality tiling solutions for residential projects, combining precision craftsmanship with attention to detail. Whether it’s bathrooms, kitchens, laundries, living areas or outdoor spaces, we take pride in achieving a clean, durable and visually striking finish.

From surface preparation through to the final grout line, every stage of the installation is completed with care to ensure long-lasting performance and a professional result. We work with a wide range of tile styles, sizes and materials, tailoring each project to suit the client’s vision and the character of the space.

We believe great tiling is about more than just laying tiles—it’s about creating a finish that enhances the overall design while standing up to everyday use. Our commitment to quality workmanship, reliability and attention to detail ensures every project is completed to a high standard.

Maiya Ct Renovation

It’s rare to work with clients who teach you as much as you build for them, but these incredible sisters have done just that! Their passion for low-to-no-tox, healthy homes has been truly inspiring.

This project was more than just a stunning home renovation—it was a lesson in sustainability, upcycling, and healthier building practices. We proudly incorporated large amounts of reclaimed materials and have now made no-tox internal paints a standard at Gypco.

A huge thank you to the sisters for sharing their knowledge—we’re proud to carry these values forward.

Epoch Centre Sustainable Office

In our industry, you occasionally come across truly exceptional clients—visionaries who dream big and take real action to make it happen. Epoch was one of those projects. Working alongside Steve, Emanuela, and Gilbert, we had the best teammates we could ask for, where perfection was non-negotiable and sustainability was at the core of every decision.

With Adrian from One20Group Architects, the project featured unique design elements that truly came to life. Overcoming challenges—including a deteriorating existing building, shared tenancy complications, COVID disruptions, and material supply issues—was no small feat.

Yet, thanks to the dedication of an incredible team—including our own manager Aryan and our skilled tradies—we delivered this project on time, on budget, and to an exceptional standard. The results speak for themselves, and with a Premier’s Sustainability Award potentially on the horizon, we couldn’t be prouder!

Frankston Eco

This project is a perfect showcase of up-cycling done right proving that sustainable choices can be both functional and beautiful. The bench and cupboard doors were crafted from materials salvaged from the home’s own walls and floors, giving them a second life with character and charm.

The solar setup eliminated the need for gas, creating a more energy-efficient home. With government rebates, the system will pay for itself within 10 years – a win for both the environment and the homeowner’s wallet!

Sustainable building isn’t just about reducing waste, it’s about creating thoughtful, long-lasting solutions that work for both people and the planet.

Breeze St Apartment Cladding

This large apartment development in Brunswick called on Gypco for expert carpentry, external timber cladding, and general construction management services. With a high-end finish and deadlines met, the residents of Breeze Street can now enjoy a quality-built living space.

Glen Eira Sports Facility

Community sports facilities take a beating with constant use, so they need to be built to last! Partnering with another builder, GYPCO took charge of the Frame, Lock-Up, and Fix for this project—delivering flawless results.

But don’t just take our word for it—see for yourself!

Norwood College Gym

The students needed a gymnasium, so we stepped in to help make it happen! Working alongside another builder, we helped construct the frame, secure the exterior, and get the interior ready for action.

Now, the space is set for kids to enjoy.

Neerim Rd Cladding

A 46-townhouse development featuring one of the highest-end cladding systems available. While general townhouse carpentry is often cookie-cutter, this project introduced a unique challenge—the Equitone pre-finished panel system.

This high-end cladding required meticulous attention to detail, particularly in its waterproofing systems, ensuring both durability and a premium visual finish

To the new residents of Carnegie—enjoy your beautifully crafted homes!

Gardenvale Extension

A growing family in need of more space wanted to transform their unit into a two-story townhouse—and we were proud to make it happen! Despite the ongoing challenges of COVID, our clients showed incredible patience and teamwork, helping us deliver a top-tier result that benefits everyone.

The best part? The kids now have their own rooms, and by building up instead of out, we preserved valuable green space—a win for both the family and the environment.

Earth Ship

We understand the immense waste generated by the building industry and the reliance on virgin materials that don’t always offer the best quality or longevity. Thermal efficiency and healthy home design are often overlooked due to cost—until now!

Enter the Earth Ship philosophy!

For this project, we set out to create a beautiful, thermally efficient, and structurally solid eco-build using entirely up-cycled materials, fallen (dried) trees, and innovative engineering. The result? A home that’s not just sustainable but also stunning.
