Welcome to Envirotecture, where we have a strong desire for all people to live, sleep, work and play in buildings that are healthier for people and planet.
We truly care about our natural-environment, and we care about ensuring the built-environment we create with you aligns with our shared vision and values.
We’re not just environmental-architects; we’re passionate advocates for a more sustainable and regenerative future for all.
We are not only ambitious in our pursuits – we put these ideals into action. Yes we’re ‘dreamers’ (and we feel you might be too if you’re here seeking Architectural Services about your new future…) but we’re also very practical ‘doers’, and we are here to help transform design concepts into a built reality with you.
Our holistic approach combines beautiful biophilic design with rational building-science expertise – working with your brief and budget to create a site-specific design response. We help navigate constraints (as we see these as creative opportunities to be innovative) and help prioritise your needs.
Envirotecture have been Australia’s trusted sustainable-design experts across the country for over 25 years, working across many scales, and we also offer Passivhaus and Sustainability-Consulting too as we’re serious about implementing our intentions.
We will continue to care for the next 25 years and beyond, and continue to be the change we want to see.
We look forward to starting a conversation with you and seeing where it will take us together…
At Envirotecture we use sustainable architectural principles because we know that you want your building to:
What does sustainable design look like? Does it look good? Or aim to BE good?
We care about performance and efficiency (we really don’t like careless waste!), but we also care about the timeless-beauty of a biophilic design approach, so that we feel a sense of care and connection to nature by making choices that are more ethical when it comes to the built environment.
We have teams located in NSW and VIC, and we work across Australia.
Contact us today to find out how we can work together – to help make a meaningful improvement to the buildings you live, sleep, work or play in.

#StrongerTogether
From December 2022 Envirotecture and Talina Edwards Architecture have become one! We are very happy to announce our next chapter uniting our teams to be stronger together. We believe that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and the synergy created by this partnership will lead to greater impact and better outcomes.
The name ‘Envirotecture’ embodies what we are passionate about creating: architecture that honours and respects our deep connection to the natural environment.
