BEGIN WITH YOUR PROJECT
What are you planning?
At Neighbourhood Architecture we will tailor our design guideline to suit your project and your needs.
01
Renovate or extend
Make your existing home warmer, lighter and easier to live in while retaining what already works.
02
Build a new home
A site-specific, all-electric home balancing performance, character and construction budget.
03
Improve performance
Prioritise windows, insulation, airtightness and services using building science, not guesswork.
ARCHITECTURE + BUILDING SCIENCE
Beautiful homes that perform in Canberra’s climate.
We test orientation, glazing, shading, insulation and thermal performance while the design is still flexible, so comfort and energy use inform the architecture rather than being checked at the end.
