25.01.2022 Happy Fathering Day to all those who are identify with this role. This gorgeous artwork is called Reinvigorate, created down by the Great Ocean Rd on #waddawurrungcountry by indigenous artist @salty_one_here (It’s a gift for my partner today from our kids - that we’ll all get to enjoy too once it’s framed and on our wall!) #geelongartist #indigenousart #sandart #biophilicdesign #natureart #fathersdaygift

23.01.2022 Thanks to my local preloved bookstore for hand delivering my new purchase on a Sunday afternoon only a few hours after I saw it for sale on Instagram! @minervasbooksandideas you guys are awesome! I learnt about this classic at uni, but can’t remember much about it - I’ll add it my stack to read! #tsundoku #lovebooks #ballaratbooks #toomanybooksnotenoughtime #architecturebooks

23.01.2022 Thanks so much APHA team for organising such a great virtual conference, thanks to all the presenters for sharing their stories, and thanks to the Passivhaus community for showing up and being part of the discussion, continuing to learn, #buildcapacity & #expectmore!

22.01.2022 We're excited to be presenting at the virtual South Pacific Passive House Conference 2020 in just a few weeks time! Owl Woods Wisdom is a Case Study of one of Australia’s first architect-designed (& award-winning) Certified Passivhaus Projects. Our presentation is co-hosted by the Architect (Talina Edwards), the builder (Stuart Lee) and the homeowner (David Rhind).... We’ll be openly sharing lessons learnt from our three perspectives, including the design-stage, during construction, and post-occupancy insights. We’re absolutely honoured to be sharing the virtual stage with inspiring international keynotes and other local industry experts - it's a jam-packed program! We welcome you to join us if you’re curious about the enormous potential of good design, the benefits of Passivhaus and the importance of action in the building sector for a sustainable energy future.

19.01.2022 Both I (Talina) and my colleague Mia are passionate advocates and ambassadors for Passivhaus* in Australia. In early 2019 we headed across the seas to Wellington, New Zealand for the South Pacific Passive House Conference 2019 #SPPHC2019 for a big dose of inspiration and to geek out on building science with other kindred folk in the industry who want to see healthier, comfortable and resilient buildings be the #newnormal for us antipodeans.

19.01.2022 Hurrah! It’s the first day of Spring! We made it through another Ballarat winter! (& of course this one felt a lot longer & more miserable than usual due to lockdown). We’re now on our way now to brighter days!!

18.01.2022 So much goodness happening online today for Sustainable House Day! Lots of live panel sessions, Q&As with homeowners & professionals, plus dozens of video home-tours to watch at your leisure... #Repost @sustainablehouseday with @get_repost Today is Sustainable House Day! Time to grab a coffee, find a comfortable spot, and get ready for our three virtual rooms to open at 9:45am(AEST).

17.01.2022 We chose to use @colorbondsteel for roofing & wall cladding on the #owlwoodspassivehouse due to it being low-maintenance, durable and recyclable (at the end of the building’s life...which is hopefully not for 100years!). #Repost @colorbondsteel with @get_repost Owl Woods Passive House designed by @Talina_Edwards Architecture was the first certified Passivhaus project designed by a female architect in Australia. This beautiful and unique home, located in the Victorian Town... of Trentham, resembles a cluster of farm-sheds or birdhouses inspired by the surrounding natural bushland and a Scottish village where the homeowners once lived. It features #COLORBONDsteel #Wallaby in a @LYSAGHT_au CUSTOM ORB profile for both roofing and cladding, and not only follows Passivhaus standards of Construction for an extremely energy-efficient build, but it also adheres to biophilic principles with the design of its pitched gabled roofs in the shape of unique bird beaks for solar shading.

16.01.2022 We posted out about 50 copies of the Passivhaus in Australia book today as gifts to some lucky recipients! We helped make this book with a small team of volunteers for #APHA Australian Passive House Association (Thanks for your patience if you’ve been waiting on a copy from us & hopefully it arrives before Christmas!) You can also download a free PDF copy: https://passivehouseaustralia.org//PassivhausInAustralia.a One reviewer said That bloody passivhaus book. Amazing. ...I have almost read it cover to cover. Another night and I’ll be done. You should be very very proud indeed. And you have another convert.

15.01.2022 We’re so proud of our owner-builder-clients! Look at their stunning home that’s located in what could be described as one of Victoria’s harshest climates! (Icy winds & sub-zero temps in Winter with occasional snow, 40+ degrees in Summer) They prioritised quality over quantity, and although it was a slow process, their patience has delivered a beautiful home that is also very comfortable & efficient!

11.01.2022 Do you remember early in 2020 before we went into lockdown01? I can hardly remember either - it feels like a lifetime ago! We were able to meet face-to-face, including this opportunity to be interviewed in the recording studio for a new podcast celebrating Ballarat businesses, focusing on local stories and insights. It's called the Business Ballarat Podcast . Thanks again to Nicole Ashby from High-Profit Media and Chris Ashmore for the opportunity to be interviewed! https://talinaedwards.com.au//ballarat-business-podcast-a/

11.01.2022 Happy Equinox! We’re certainly at the change of seasons here in #Ballarat - sunshine & blue skies over canola fields near Clunes earlier today & hail storms & icy winds back in town this afternoon!

11.01.2022 In 2020, over 200 practices answered the call to get their own houses in order and made a commitment to go carbon neutral. Despite being one of the toughest years Australia has seen, these practices have shown that building a sustainable future is a number one priority. Thank you for your hard work....
