1. The SWALE modular concept

It Just Makes Sense 

Time, Cost and Quality are a given, BUT that's just the start. 

SWALE has several design options tailored to suit a variety of different requirements, from a studio apartment or granny flat, through to your family home, shop, cafe, restaurant, caravan park or eco-resort. Fundamentally, the same construction principles apply. 

We believe in a modular system that eliminates construction INEFFICIENCIES allowing you to follow easy steps to buy exactly what you are looking for and move in straight away without RISK! 

With our fixed prices and complete packages, you can relax in the knowledge that you will get exactly what you're expecting - when, where and how you're expecting it!
Eliminating all the usual inefficiencies of the building industry is our key to providing your new room, home or resort with peace of mind and all the features and finishes you've dreamed of. 

There are hundreds of questions when designing, building and furnishing a new home. 
We simplify that process so it's as easy and as fun as buying a new car  - a simple step by step process with no hidden surprises. 

We Think Outside the BOX - And Inside it Too..

Shipping containers don't make great homes but the logistics, lines, strength and versatility of shipping containers do. By using these design and construction methodologies we bypass the faults, flaws, complications and inefficiencies of the building game and you begin to see that the process of buying a home can be simple, effective and enjoyable.
The ability to construct, fit-out and furnish the "boxes" in a warehouse setting, means that every last detail arrives on-site safe, sound and secure.

The whole process as a buyer starts really as simply as this:
  • Work out what you need. How many rooms? How many modules?
  • Think about what style and personality suits your way of living.
  • Look at your finances and which modules suit your budget. 
  • Remember - you can always add on more modules as your family or needs require!

Designed & Built with Passion

After building his dream home, losing it to the Black Saturday fires, then rebuilding it from ashes, designer Chris Clarke's passion for building took a turn. He came to the realisation that the lines, strengths and proportions he had created in his multi award winning homes could have been built at a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time with the use of shipping container principles.

Chris, the founder of SWALE, has personally designed every detail of every unit and intimately oversees every aspect of the entire process. Chris makes himself available to every client to discuss all aspects of your modular journey.
