Ecolibrium Designs

At Ecolibrium Designs we strive to provide building designs that are not only energy and cost efficient in terms of day to day functioning and construction but also create environments that are inviting and comfortable. Our building designs incorporate established sustainable architecture principles such as passive solar design, excellent ventilation and the incorporation of thermal mass. We also now offer designs incorporating the internationally renown Passive House standard. All materials specified in the design are carefully considered to minimise environmental impacts before, during and after construction. The result is a building that has minimal impact and is comfortable and healthy to live in. Sustainable property planning designs aim to guide you (short or long term) to create a productive system that provides you with a sustainable food and resource supply that will enhance your lifestyle and that of the surrounding environment. The combination of building design and property planning goes a long way towards the ultimate in sustainable design and living. When the built environment works in harmony with the natural environment (the garden/property) and vice versa, resource, water and energy usage can reach its highest efficiency. Sustainable Building Design is not just a solar hot water system and a water tank. At Ecolibrium we take it much further than that. With a passion for the environment and design we understand that a balance needs to be found between the impact of a building on the environment and the realities of budget and everyday practicalities. We can also explore the best options for renovations and retrofits to improve the functionality and efficiency of existing buildings. We strive to design efficient, healthy buildings of minimal impact, within budgets through; clever, efficient design, use of sophisticated 3D computer modelling, extensive experience and construction knowledge, broad research of products and systems
