Small Changes | Big Impacts
The subtropics are worthy of special design attention.
Design skill is needed to take advantage of the liveability opportunities in a climate which is tropical in summer, temperate in cooler months. Conditions are within the ‘comfort zone‘ much of the time but are sometimes extreme.
Different climatic design principles apply at different times of the year. Good design works all year round.
Cities’ social and ecological footprints improve when climate and landscape are the starting point for design.
The SubTropical Cities Consultancy collaborates with community organisations, local governments, built environment professions, planning, architecture, landscape architecture, engineering and urban development.
We integrate objective knowledge and creative intuition to investigate ways to solve problems, meet needs, and improve situations, practically and authentically.
