Are you building, renovating, or dreaming of a more sustainable home on the Sunshine Coast?

Join local expert Brett Grimley, Founder and Principal Building Designer of Ecolibrium, for the first in a new community talk series:

Foundations for the Future: Designing Sustainable Homes

This engaging, two-hour session will present an overview of Sustainable Building Design, and will offer practical insights for homeowners, builders, and renovators.

Brett Grimley brings over three decades of experience, and throughout the series will cover the core principles of sustainable design while exploring key topics such as planning whole properties in harmony with the environment, designing for climate resilience, integrating sustainability into both new builds and renovations, and working with aligned professionals to achieve ethical, high-performance outcomes.

The evening will also feature Interior Designer Sally Stent from Eco Interiors, who will share her unique approach to sourcing, styling, and curating furniture and art in a sustainable, localised, and resourceful way.

This is a must-attend event for anyone curious about building better—from the ground up.
