Sustainability and energy efficiency are at the heart of every Foodies Property project. We provide integrated building services and Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) for all our projects. We can assist with sustainable design, passive design, energy efficiency, ESD reporting for town planning, BCA Section J and JV3 modelling, house energy ratings (NatHERS), and environmental rating tools such as Green Star, WELL, Fitwel and Living Building Challenge.
Foodies Property has expertise in energy modeling aimed at guaranteeing adherence to minimum energy efficiency criteria like NCC Section J in Australia. This compliance-focused energy modeling can also be expanded to voluntary standards like LEED and Green Star. Additionally, it serves as an initial design aid for projects prioritizing energy efficiency. Anticipating energy consumption for HVAC, equipment, lighting, etc., aids in selecting the most effective efficiency strategies tailored to each project.
Natural sunlight holds significant importance in our daily lives, offering considerable comfort, health benefits, and enhancing the ambiance for humans. Windows facilitating daylight entry into structures are crucial for the visual connection they establish with the external environment. Moreover, daylight is valued for its quality, spectral makeup, and variation. Foodies Property offers daylight modeling right from the inception of your project to ensure desired levels of daylight are attained in the building, mitigating glare, and considering suitable shading systems as integral parts of the design. Additionally, we provide daylight modeling to showcase adherence to council regulations and rating criteria.
