Here in New Zealand, we’re hard wired to spend time outdoors. So, it makes sense that our homes are designed to flow — not just on the inside, but outside too. The team at Vynco has been working hard to make that happen.

Intertenancy walls and floors are often assessed primarily for fire and acoustic separation.

Modern building practices have contributed to increased moisture and condensation in the roofspace.
