Almost 700 people flocked through the Crace Demonstration Village last Sunday on a quest to learn all about getting greener.
The event, which was run as part of the national Sustainable House Day initiative, included sustainability experts from across the region who were on hand to share their insight and expertise with the community. Those interested in building, renovating or just smartening up their green credentials flocked to Crace to get tips and advice tailored to their questions and queries.
Experts on draught proofing, window technology, harnessing the sun for better energy outcomes and choosing energy efficient appliances, all provided their insight and advice. The Crace sustainability team was also in residence, and provided technical tips on everything from eco friendly landscaping and water re-use, to sustainable design and solar orientation.
A highlight of the day was a workshop by Australia's favourite decorator, Tara Dennis, who provided tips and advice on upcycling and sustainable decorating.
