About the Speaker: Darryn Parkinson has over
twenty years experience in design and construction
both in Australia and in the UK. As a director of
your abode, Darryn works with clients who are looking
to create a more eco-friendly home that takes into
account human health, human comfort and the greater
environment. your abode creates eco-friendly homes
and renovations - homes that are good to live in as
well as being good for the overall environment.
Darryn's pursuit of green building is driven by his
opinion that we need to reinvent the way we design
and build our homes. He strongly believes that it
is fundamentally unacceptable that we build our homes
with very little regard for the energy and resources
consumed during construction and during the life of
the home.

Topic Overview:
Green building is a wholistic way of designing and
building new homes and renovations. In creating a
green home, there needs to be synergy between both
the design and construction, both working towards
the same goal - to create a home that is good for
you, and good for the environment.
In Darryn's seminar you will gain an understanding
of:

- Why it is important to focus on the end result
