Sustainability has been a part of good design for years, prior to the enforced sustainability compliance by the individual state governments. The specified programs and systems are created for ease of use for standardised and/or mass produced housing, and in their early releases were not sophisticated enough to credit new innovations in sustainable design.
But what is the worth of a 5 Star house if it is not a peaceful environment to live in? What if the subsequent cost increase to implement the sustainability measures saw a compromise to the construction quality or architectural appeal which in effect reduced the buildings life span? Wouldn’t the energy resources to demolish and re-build a house in the long term have a more detrimental affect on the environment than if the original home, designed with timeless architectural appeal and with materials of longevity, was maintained?
The ability to create sustainable designs with uncompromised beauty and functionality is a unique quality mastered by Vibe Design Group. With offices in Melbourne Sydney and Brisbane and designs Australia wide, Vibe Design Group is practiced in implementing sustainable measures to compliment Australia’s varying climatic conditions. House design
One of the most challenging tasks face by Vibe Design Group is encouraging council’s to embrace designs which capitalise on sustainability. Many properties are subject to overlays which require the pattern of existing homes to be maintained. Most existing neighbourhoods are of some age and are predominantly filled with homes with little or no consideration to sustainability. It is inevitable the future will see a change in the scale, orientation and overall design of properties which must be embraced by the relative councils.
