House Build Part I - Mini Episode
from Practical Permaculture | Gardening and Intentional Living Hosted by Alysse Gallagher
We live, work, and dream on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands. We acknowledge them as holding deep ecological knowledge and their ability to live sustainably in harmony with the land. They and other ancient cultures are roots of permaculture—working with nature, fostering resilience, and ensuring balance for future generations In this episode, I chat about my journey of building a "sustainable" house, focusing on site selection, design choices, and permaculture principles. I share my insights on orientation strategies, thermal mass, ventilation, and water management. I also talk about how we have tried to balance sustainability with practical constraints and budget considerations. Stay tuned for part II next week where I talk about looking at building through a permaculture lens.
