Project Overview
In 2005, we proudly unveiled the Yarra Duplex, a testament to our commitment to innovative sustainable development. Showcasing a seamless blend of contemporary design and environmental stewardship, this project marked a significant milestone in our journey to redefining sustainable living spaces.
Core Services Provided:
Architecture: The project's design highlighted Neomorph's characteristic use of native Australian timbers. This not only celebrated local resources but also ensured a harmonious blend of indoor and outdoor aesthetics.
Project Management: Neomorph's meticulous oversight ensured that the Yarra Duplex was executed flawlessly, adhering to design principles while meeting sustainability benchmarks.
Sustainability Consulting: Our in-depth consultation ensured the project was holistically sustainable, from the choice of materials to the energy systems integrated into the home.
Property Development | Construction: With our hands-on approach to property development and construction, we ensured that the Yarra Duplex was built to the highest standards while minimizing environmental impact.
Sustainable Features:
Energy Efficient Building Envelope: The duplex was constructed with materials and design choices that optimized thermal performance, ensuring minimal energy wastage.
Low Embodied Energy: Conscious material choices ensured that the energy required in the production, transport, and assembly of building materials was minimized.
Rainwater Harvesting: This feature captured and stored rainwater, reducing the dependence on municipal water sources and ensuring water efficiency.
Grey Water Recycling: By recycling grey water, the Yarra Duplex promoted the efficient use of water resources, reusing water from showers, sinks, and laundry for landscape irrigation and other non-potable purposes.
Legacy and Recognition: Two decades post-completion, the Yarra Duplex remains an exemplary model of sustainable living, standing the test of time both in aesthetics and functionality. A testimony to its groundbreaking design and commitment to sustainability, the project was highly commended in the 2005 Australian Timber Awards.
The Yarra Duplex is more than just a building; it's a statement of our unwavering commitment to forging a future where luxury coexists with sustainability. We're proud to have been at the forefront of innovation, and the project continues to inspire our endeavours today.
