Context
In partnership with the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA), the Australian Passive House Association (APHA) and project architects Envirotecture, HIP V. HYPE was engaged to collate and draft the Green Star Homes rating submission for the project, using evidence from the Passive House Certification process. The process was thoroughly documented and insights used to understand discrepancies between the two certification pathways, and how they could be better aligned.
Asquith home demonstrates how homes can achieve both a Green Star Homes and Passive House rating, with this pilot project providing crucial industry feedback for future assessments.
