Design & Architecture

An inhabitants experience of a space is the foundation for our designs. Smaller dwellings require greater attention to detail when it comes to functionality & the utilisation of space. This is in part where the collision of Scandinavian and Japanese architecture has provided guidance for our designs, both famously masterful in the utilisation of smaller spaces

High Performance Design

Your comfort, by design.

Your comfort is our priority. That’s why we’ve created Spaces that perform above 95% of dwellings in Australia, drawing on Passive House principles.

What does that mean for you? We aim to keep you thermally comfortable, whatever the weather outside.

Wake up warm in winter, cool in summer. Breathe filtered, healthy air. Enjoy the hush of sound-insulated walls.

It’s hard to put into words the feeling of a true high-performance Space. Come and experience it - we promise it won’t disappoint.

Passive House Design Principles

  • Our Space is highly insulated, bosting thermal comfort, quiet and energy efficient.

    We use Structurally Insulated Panels - a foam core sandwiched between 12mm Oriental Strand Board.

    Our floors and roof panels are 215mm thick, and walls 115mm - R5.8 and R3.26 respectfully…for those who care about the numbers.

  • Air and weather tightness are key when creating comfort - we go well beyond standard practice.

    We use industry leading products like Pro Clima’s building wraps to eliminate weak points where air could enter or escape. Combined with a lot of love and care through the construction process, the result is a Space that is truly airtight.

    No nasty cold draft in winter. Or condensation on the inside surface of our windows. Just a stable comfortable environment year-round

    For those who care about the numbers: our blower door test came in at 2.8 air changes - not passive house, but an impressive result for a 15m2 dwelling.

  • Window are the weak point in most buildings. Getting this right

    We partner with BINQ windows, the leading high performance window manufacturer in Australia.
