Our Vision for a Sustainable Aldinga Development

The state government’s release of 60 hectares of land in Aldinga has presented an unprecedented opportunity to set a new benchmark for sustainable development in Australia.

We share our community's passion to see sustainable and climate-resilient developments that offer a diverse range of innovative, affordable, energy-efficient homes that consider the environment while supporting a fantastic lifestyle. This is why we've created a detailed vision for the Aldinga development that can serve as a model across the state and the nation.

We are seeking the following sustainable outcomes for the development:

commitment to environmentally sustainable design principles
industry leading Green Star Communities rating targeting 6-Stars
housing which meets the new Green Star for Homes standard OR minimum 8-star NatHERS rating
low carbon house design and build
zero/low waste, recycled materials, circular economy
integration of renewable energy achieving net-zero energy use
rainwater capture and use of recycled water
water sensitive urban design (WSUD)
trees and urban greening on private and public land
functional open green spaces for community wellbeing and recreation
