In this episode, Sharon Robinson, architectural designer, certified Passive House and Homestar designer - shares how her company Smart Living Spaces, is redefining housing accessibility through its innovative Small, Smart Spaces concept. By combining the benefits of group housing, bespoke design, and offsite construction, Sharon is helping make high-performance homes achievable for more New Zealanders. She also explores how Homestar-rated homes can impact energy bills by up to 50% improvement in health and comfort with the same or lower power bills people are used to paying and unlock better mortgage rates, while emphasizing the power of collaboration between designers, builders, and mortgage brokers to deliver affordable, efficient, and healthy homes.
