Our Design

Designing Australia’s best small homes & cabins.

At Euca, our architecture led prefab design process creates high-amenity cabins and small homes designed to perform in real-world use — from regional tourism settings to everyday living.

Our award-winning design team spent over a year working to achieve big impacts within compact footprints. The result is a range of small homes, that redefine what prebuilt homes can be. The designs have been shaped around amenity and experience, delivering spaces that are comfortable, energy-efficient, engaging and genuinely enjoyable to occupy.

Architecture Team

Our multidisciplinary team brings together architecture, interior design, construction, product development and sustainability expertise to deliver high-quality, cost-effective small homes and modular cabins.

This depth of experience allows us to resolve complex constraints — compact footprints, transport limits and regional conditions — into buildings that feel intuitive, comfortable and well considered.

Euca Design Principles

These principles guide how we design every Euca building — ensuring high levels of amenity, comfort and performance within a compact footprint.

1. Designed for Australia

We set out to design the ‘Great Australian Cabin’. A celebration of classic farm buildings, beach houses, mountain cabins, modern architecture, native materials, connection to the environment and the Australian lifestyle.

2. Immersive Interior Design

Forget the sterile white box. Euca interiors are designed to immerse and connect to the local landscape. This includes full height windows, sustainably sourced Australian materials and natural surfaces.

3. Thoughtful Floorplans

Creating multiple experiences in small homes & cabins.

Dining bench & day bed.

Kitchen-free living rooms.

Desks & workstations.

Free-standing bath with private views.

Entry nook with coat rack & boot storage.
