We are on a mission to help builders, designers, and developers lift performance - one region at a time.

The Building Code is shifting, and performance matters more than ever. Across Aotearoa in 2026, the Better by Design roadshow will bring hands-on, practical masterclasses to regions around the country - giving industry professionals the skills and confidence to design warmer, healthier, more energy-efficient homes.

At the heart of each session is ECCHO, the Energy and Carbon Calculator for Homes. This New Zealand–made tool helps you quickly test what really matters - from glazing choices and insulation levels to heating systems and orientation - showing how a home will perform before it’s built. That means fewer surprises, smoother compliance, and better outcomes for clients.

Whether you’re a builder wanting to simplify H1 compliance, a designer needing clarity in a shifting Code environment, or a developer aiming for higher-performing homes, Better by Design is your chance to get ahead with practical modelling skills you can use immediately.
