Research House Library
The Research House project aims to develop and disseminate information to the building industry and the general community on sustainable housing and the elements of Smart Housing - social, environmental and economic sustainability. The information presented in the Research House Library is a compilation of documents and associated references produced by the project team. It is designed to provide guidance, tools and information to enable people interested in sustainable design to make better informed decisions. The data produced through ongoing research on the house has been included in the library to demonstrate where possible savings - in terms of resource, energy and water efficiency, and greenhouse gas emissions - can be made. Wherever possible, dollar values have been applied to show potential savings to home owners. We hope you find this information informative, useable and interesting.
