Passive sustainable home designs

Each home is crafted with sustainability and affordable living at its heart. They feature energy-efficient appliances, ceiling fans, and ducted air conditioning, complemented by generous private spaces and primarily north-facing layouts that maximise natural light and outdoor living.

All homes adhere to the Queensland Development Code MP 4.1 for Sustainable Buildings, incorporating eco-friendly materials and designs with the lowest practical energy intensity. They combine sound environmental principles with commercial practicality.

Every home includes an outdoor alfresco area—seven of which face north—linked seamlessly to indoor living, dining, and kitchen spaces. High ceilings enhance sunlight penetration, allowing solar warmth in winter and natural shading in summer.

Bedrooms and main amenities are positioned on northern or southern sides wherever possible. North-facing bedrooms and living areas optimise solar gain, reducing heating and cooling demands throughout Queensland’s seasonal changes. East and west-facing windows are intentionally smaller to minimise unwanted summer heat.

The design balances cost-efficient, recyclable steel-frame construction with high-mass party walls and ground floors, enhancing thermal performance.

Wherever practical, homes take advantage of natural ventilation and south-easterly breezes. Covered alfresco areas with ceiling fans provide additional shade and cooling, supporting comfortable indoor-outdoor living year-round.

Landscaped private outdoor spaces

Outdoor spaces are designed with low-maintenance, native plantings and water-wise landscaping, providing lush greenery that thrives in the local climate while conserving water. These landscapes are not only visually appealing but also support local biodiversity.

Beyond aesthetics, sustainability is at the core of our design. Outdoor surfaces are strategically incorporated to manage stormwater, reducing runoff and improving groundwater recharge. Green buffers and planted courtyards act as natural cooling elements enhancing comfort for residents. By combining smart landscaping with eco-conscious building practices, our homes deliver long-term environmental benefits while maintaining an elegant, contemporary appeal.

The result is a harmonious community where every detail—from plant selection to layout—reflects a commitment to both style and sustainability. Residents can enjoy vibrant outdoor spaces, healthier living conditions, and reduced power costs, all while knowing their home contributes positively to the environment. This design sets a new benchmark for responsible urban living, proving that modern townhouses can be beautiful, functional, and eco-friendly.
