We love advocating for better buildings and sharing our knowledge with our industry and the border community.
We’re proud to be active with the #declares movements. We signed up to “Australian Architectects Declare a Climate and BioDiversity Emergency” in the early days, and go beyond this simple declaration, to implement as many better choices as possible with all the work we do… to really aim for best practice.
“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” – Maya Angelou
We’re always learning how to do better, and we like to share this knowledge to help others do better too.
This week, we’re guest-hosting the instagram account over at @architectsdeclare_au in the lead-up to a webinar we’ll be hosting for @builders_declareau (booking link)
We are sharing the golden discoveries from our recent keynote presentation at the Australian Passivhaus Association’s SPPHC (South Pacific Passive House Conference: THRIVE 2023) which was based on a passion project we undertook in 2022.
It started as a competition entry for TRUE ZERO CARBON CHALLENGE (Thanks to @designmattersnational ) and turned into a lengthy research project and advocacy work about Australia’s housing!
SHOULD WE BE REACHING FOR THE STARS, OR ARE WE CHASING RAINBOWS?
Discover the gold: the truth about healthy Net-Zero-Carbon homes in Australia.
Drawing insights from our “Little Pot of Gold” house research, learn about the complex relationship between operational-carbon and embodied-carbon, NatHERS and PHPP, and how to achieve more equitable, affordable & healthy true-net-zero homes for all.
Thanks in advance to the awesome #architectsdeclare community for having us, and please stay tuned to learn more over this week…
