FAQ
What makes EcoArk Design different from other sustainability consultants?
We combine architectural expertise with deep ESD knowledge, offering a holistic, design-led approach to sustainability. Our solutions go beyond compliance — we integrate biophilic design, passive strategies, and energy simulations to create future-ready spaces that perform beautifully and responsibly.
Do you only work with architects and developers, or can homeowners approach you too?
We work with everyone — from homeowners and small builders to large developers and councils. Whether you’re planning a sustainable home, renovating, or managing a commercial build, we provide custom solutions and practical advice every step of the way.
Can you help with planning applications that require BESS or Green Star reports?
Absolutely. We provide fully compliant and council-ready ESD reports, including BESS, Green Star, NatHERS, SMPs, and more. We tailor each report to your project type and council requirements, ensuring a smooth planning process.
How early in the project should we engage you?
The earlier, the better! Getting us involved in the concept or early design stage allows us to make the most impact — improving energy performance, reducing future costs, and helping you unlock sustainability credits from the very beginning.
