OUTLIER Podcast Highlights #6 How to design for Australia's most sustainable housing estate Part 1

Outlier + Adapt Podcast

We are kicking the new year off with a super interesting topic: sustainable property developments. We have Jess Cuman on, designer and thermal assessor in his own business Adapt Design Group, who has done a lot of work for The Cape, Australia’s most sustainable development. We talk about his own personal journey that brought him and his family to focus on more sustainable and energy efficient house design, and what design approach he is taking in his projects. Jess also gives his thoughts on the future of housing developments and shares his wishes for improvements in the building code. After our previous Highlights episodes, we thought this chat with Jess about the Cape was the perfect follow-up. In the episode we discussed The Cape development, why Jess decided to move into The Cape, what it was like for him to design his own house, how many homes he has designed for The Cape, his design process, how being a Thermal Assessor assists his design process, and his varied client base. As always, these are only the best bits, so if you would like to know more, check out the full episode on your preferred podcast platform, or our Podcast Playlist on YouTube.
