About Superhome Movement


The Superhome Movement was founded in 2015 and is now a Charitable Trust comprising industry participants nationwide, including architects, designers, engineers, builders, trades, suppliers and more.
‍
We are a group of like minded professionals that have a shared purpose to help people live in better, healthier, more energy-efficient, and environmentally-friendly homes.
‍
New Zealand’s building code is over 20 years behind other developed OECD countries with almost all new homes being built to the lowest standard allowed by law. We have some of the worst health statistics in the world related to poor housing. We need healthier, affordable, and energy efficient housing now!

The shared aim is advancing design education with a focus on reducing the effect of poor housing on the environment and improving the heath of our communities.
