Sustainable House
The aim of this site is to encourage the application concepts of sustainability to the construction and on-going maintenance of our homes.
In consideration of a house or other building, we judge sustainability by reference to the level of consumption of finite resources employed in the building and maintaining the structure. Our aim is to for our processes to be sustainable indefinitely.
[Sustainable development] meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
