Your dream build starts with the selection of your location. An established location with embedded natural elements, such as an infill into an established neighbourhood, sets the stage for your home.
After selecting your location, an expert designer will design your home with the existing natural elements in mind. This design process is critical to building a biophilic home and realizing its benefits. Your home should be integrated with the natural environment, not stand apart. Features such as old-growth trees, views into space, running water, sounds of nature, and green spaces are all factors to be considered.
