The Best of the Best category at the Sustainability Awards is a highly coveted prize that represents the pinnacle of sustainable design excellence.
This accolade, sponsored by our esteemed Event Partner, Autex Acoustics, is not a submission-based category, nor does it require any shortlisted entries or nominations. However, it demands an exceptional level of sustainable design ingenuity and innovation from its contenders, making it a challenging yet highly rewarding distinction.
The Best of the Best award is automatically bestowed upon the winners of the respective categories in the Sustainability Awards. The eminent Jury, entrusted with the evaluation process, employs a points system to determine the champion, who joins an illustrious roster of past winners, renowned for their lasting impact on the built environment industry.
The 2022 Best of the Best laureate, Pepper Tree Passive House by Alex Symes, emerged victorious in the Single Dwelling (Alteration/Addition) category.
Adhering to the international Passive House standard, this project exemplifies sustainability, manifested in its natural material palette, high-performance design, and robust biophilic connection. The project's objective was to achieve more with less, by elevating the thermal performance of the existing home and creating a refuge with future-proof capabilities that can withstand the extreme temperatures anticipated in the years to come.
