Champion Passive House - Williamstown

“Our vision has been to build the best family house we can. That dream lead us to a Passive House design and the incredible team at Altereco Design. They showed us that not only can we afford a Passive House, but that we can have all the special touches we wanted.

We feel so lucky to have found a building designer, interior designer and builder that we connect with. And they will help us achieve a Passive House Plus certification to boot”
