Efficient and clever energy solutions are paramount to KIOME’s considered lifestyle
and amenities. Capturing the sun’s power, the solar energy system provides a renewable source of energy that reduces our residents’ collective carbon footprint and communal area energy costs. Green power is also proposed to be delivered throughout the development to further offset KIOME’s environmental footprint.
A truly sustainable home
Sustainable Design
From inception, KIOME has been guided by a comprehensive sustainable development approach. Our dedicated and unwavering team has crafted a building that authentically incorporates a wide range of sustainability considerations—from reducing our environmental impact on energy, water and waste to enhancing the local biodiversity, prioritising high-quality recycled building materials and reducing our embodied carbon.
Key Features
1. Energy
2. Water
KIOME features a water-conscious building design through the provision of an onsite rainwater harvesting system for the building’s landscape, and the specification of high-quality water-saving fixtures and appliances. These features reduce potable water consumption costs and promote water conservation.
3. LANDSCAPING
KIOME embraces a fully integrated native and edible landscape design and a
living connection to greenery. KIOME will provide residents with fresh produce and a constant connection to nature, as well as increasing the biodiversity of the area, adding to the native fauna’s food security, and revegetating the Brisbane River’s riparian zone.
4. MATERIALS
From the inside out, KIOME is a curation of considerate and rigorous material selection. Materials have been chosen to minimise our impact on the environment while ensuring longevity, durability and lower maintenance is achieved.
