A Renewed Living project by Energy Aspect Living is featured in the latest issue of Sanctuary magazine.

The renovation of an existing 1920’s red brick bungalow has transformed the home to create a comfortable living space for a growing family, with minimal need for heating or air conditioning.

The home has also inspired its owners to live more sustainably.

Sanctuary magazine is available through the Alternative Technology Association (ATA) or at newsagents.

Four finalist teams selected to be a part of the Zero Carbon Challenge have released their home designs. 

As the only finalist team driven by a builder, Energy Aspect Living took a practical, performance orientated approach to the Challenge, which means we know our design is achievable.

To take on the Zero Carbon Challenge, we assembled a creative team of local South Australian businesses with a diverse array of skill-sets, and a single-minded focus: To redefine the standard of affordable, sustainable living.

Energy Aspect Living has designed more than a Zero Carbon House…We’ve designed a Home; a home that strikes a perfect balance between your family’s needs and the needs of our environment.

To us, the Zero Carbon Challenge was much more than just designing a house.  We saw it as an opportunity to engage and inspire industry and the wider community to create a better tomorrow.
