Event description

Come on a tour of Victoria’s first Earthship, 'Kinship', in picturesque Kinglake, with owner/builder Daryl Taylor.

'Kinship' is a post-Black Saturday, eco-resilient design response to extreme bushfire threat and rapid climate disruption which has been featured across a wide range of media (including ABC Radio National, RRR FM, The Australian, The Age and The Sustainable Living Festival).

Daryl leads three hour tours that showcase the regenerative design and redevelopment of the 'Kinship' property, the features of its biotecture and permaculture-inspired design systems, and the wider vision for this innovative resilient neighbourhood precinct.

Tours include:   

  • detailed inspection of global model Earthship and the biotecture retrofit of a pre-existing solar-passive mud-brick house
  • extensive and open discussion of the processes and concepts that drive the project forward  
  • opportunity to learn and experience natural building techniques
