Armed with a combined 30 years of design and construction knowledge and experience behind them and a handful of expert guests, learn the realities of a build from the architectural building design and interior design processes right through to the nitty gritty construction details… plus everything in between.

Have you ever heard of building biology? It’s the crucial understanding of environmental triggers that may be affecting the health of a home and the people living within it. From electromagnetic fields to chemicals released from building materials. Ensuring that Blairgowrie House promoted well-being inside as well as having a low impact on the external environment was hugely important for Dan and Dani. The guys are joined by building biologist and founder of Ecolibria, Raphael Siket, to discuss how we too can have a healthier home.
