Planning your next home around the sun is one of the most positive steps you can take to creating a happy, healthy and sustainable living environment in which your family can grow.

This is the thought which drove our architects and designers as they stripped back all preconceptions of the Australian home and started to re-think the most important aspects of design.

The result is the Aurora Collection, a range of 18 homes designed to embrace natural light to maximise the wellbeing of everyone who lives inside.

Lot orientation is an important part of each design. To assist you in selecting the design that best suits your land, we have developed an optimum lot orientation guide.

And to further emphasise the importance of light in each of our designs, the names chosen are names associated with “light”.

The Aurora designs are more than ecologically sound, they are also comfortable, stylish, offer fashionable facades and designed to be enjoyed now and in the future.

Sekisui House is one of the world’s leading carbon neutral construction companies. More than 70% of all new homes that we build in Japan have energy saving and CO2 emission reduction features. Our vision is to make zero household carbon emissions the Japanese housing standard by 2050.

We are now bringing some of the latest sustainability design thinking to Australian home building. Rethink Green is a new initiative which offers you a “shopping list” of green features you can invest in beyond the Australian Green Standards.

Investing in energy and water saving equipment and other green solutions at the construction stage means you have a home designed specifically for your lifestyle that saves you money, is better for the planet and is more comfortable for you and your family all year round.

Choosing Sekisui House as your home building partner means we can work to create and exciting environmental future together.
