A New Home with Family and Sustainability in Mind, with Cindy

Hello! This is Episode 321, and in it, I’m talking with HOME Method member, Cindy. Cindy is a HOME Method member, but one with a difference. Because she’s also trained in design and achieved her qualifications as a Thermal Performance Assessor, or Energy Efficiency Assessor as it’s also known. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/321] So, designing her own new home, both as client and designer, came with some interesting learnings and challenges.  Particularly as Cindy and her partner want this home to be a fantastic hub for their family and friends, a comfortable place where they can relax and restore, and an example of the sustainable and functional design of a beautiful home in a beautiful location. It’s a great conversation where Cindy shares her insights and learnings generously and takes us on the journey of her new home build.
