Building sustainably: making carbon neutral homes and buildings

We chat to Liam Wallis, Founding Director of Hip v Hype a leading sustainable property developer based in Melbourne about the built environment and how we can make our homes and buildings carbon neutral. 

In our chat with Liam we cover: 

• What goes into creating a sustainable building - what matters the most? 
• How do builders or developers consider designing for sustainability not just in the construction phase but also for the entire life of the building?
• What innovative building materials are emerging? 
• How much of an impact can energy efficiency measures really have? 
• The green premium of building sustainably - Are customers willing to pay? 
• What will our homes and workplaces look like in the future?
