If you’re considering a Passive House or you’re already designing one, or you simply want to know more about the non-negotiables in building a high performance, comfortable and sustainable home, you’ll find this episode really helpful.
And, if you’re interested in building with Structural Insulated Panels, or SIPs, or you’ve been investigating Hempcrete as an alternative, then definitely stay tuned.
Plus, you’ll also hear how powerful it can be to have a builder involved in the pre-construction phase, as Hamish talks through the way they make this work with their clients.
I first came across Hamish and Sanctum Homes via social media, and specifically their instagram account. The posts do a great job of describing various building practices, and why Sanctum Homes use these in their homes, especially when seeking to achieve high performance, thermal comfort and long-term durability.
Hamish and I struck up a conversation over social media over a shared goal to educate and increase sustainability in the built environment. It’s been awesome to see the work he and other builders are doing as part of Builders Declare.
Also, earlier this year, Hamish joined Live Life Build’s group mastermind program, ELEVATE. So I’ve got to know him better there as he’s been learning what we share in how to improve projects and building businesses.
I’m really looking forward to sharing this conversation, as Hamish shares a lot of detail about building for climate, building with SIPs and achieving great outcomes in your project, and in the relationship you have with your team.
