Healthy Building Design & Materials

For most of us, our home will be the biggest investment of our life. With the shift towards creating energy efficient buildings, few builders, architects or government authorities have considered the adverse impact this may have on the health of the occupants. A building biologist will work with your architect / draftsperson to design a home that supports the health and the wellbeing of the family.

In particularly they will provide advice regarding the choice of healthy building materials that don't adversely affect the indoor air quality or electroclimate of the home. This is particularly useful if you suffer from allergies, have asthma, are chemically or electrically sensitive, or just wish to create a healthy living environment.
