Common sense approach. World-class outcomes.
Enjoy the peace-of-mind benefits of off-site construction, saving you time and money, and minimising disruption to your work and family life.
PassivHaus intergenerational homes are designed to adapt to your family’s changing needs, providing flexible, sustainable living for the future.
An upstairs space can serve as a parents’ retreat when children are young, later transforming into a dedicated area for teens, while the downstairs remains fully functional and accessible as you age. This is just one way these multipurpose homes blend sustainability, comfort, and practicality, reducing environmental impact while supporting a harmonious, lifelong living experience.
Your Passivhaus provide off-site construction services for energy-efficient homes. Our capable team cater for sustainable building projects, large and small.
Our customised construction services and passive home certification services are tailored to your building project needs. We help with all stages of the home building process including support with development proposals, design, cost planning, project management and construction delivery.
