Measured decisions, documented clearly.
Design guidance that protects the build.
[1] Overheating (above 25 °C) limited to ≤10% of annual hours by PHI criteria; we typically design for ≤5% in Gippsland.
We align on goals, constraints, timeline, and fit — before you spend more time or money.
We turn your context into a clear plan the whole team can follow — with decision gates.
We shape the key comfort drivers early (envelope, glazing, shading, ventilation).
Hold points and practical checks at the moments performance is easiest to lose.
Testing + documentation so outcomes are known — not guessed.
No. Passive House is a performance standard, not an aesthetic. Your home can be modern, traditional, minimalist, or farmhouse — the difference is that comfort, quiet, and air quality are designed into the building fabric, not left to chance.
7-star is a meaningful step forward — but it doesn’t automatically guarantee comfort in every room, great air quality, or robust build quality. Those outcomes still depend on detailing, airtightness, ventilation decisions, and how consistently the home is built. Passive House goes further by setting clear targets early and verifying what matters.
Not always. Some clients want formal certification; others want a Passive House-aligned outcome without the certification pathway. Either way, the intent stays the same: clear targets, modelling-informed decisions, and guidance that reduces risk during design and construction.
