Best Eco Home

This category is for self built homes that have been designed and constructed to be as efficient and sustainable as possible. We particularly welcome entrants from a variety of build systems including ICF, straw bale, SIPs and thin joint masonry, to name but a few, and anyone may enter.

Judges will look at overall design, efficiency, innovation and how the homeowners’ needs have been addressed, with a specific focus on energy performance, so reports and data will be beneficial.

Pictures are required of the interior and exterior of the home, along with a set of clear floorplans, a detailed description of the project and a reference from the homeowner.
