New Homes
HomeSmart Homes
Based on our early live research projects, the NOW Homes®, we developed a clearer picture of what is needed to build a new home to perform better in every way. As part of the HomeSmart Homes programme, we offered our learnings to builders and developers, and worked with the New Zealand Housing Foundation to turn one of their homes into a HomeSmart Home.
NOW Homes®: Our early new homes projects
Our very first live research projects, the NOW Homes®, were designed, built and monitored during use to show that sustainable homes can be built now, using products and materials available today.
