RETROFITTING AUSTRALIAN HOMES
Is it really all too hard and expensive like the housing industry and MSM would have you believe?

Nope. It doesn't have to be difficult or cost a bomb. Check out the video I just recorded at my dining table. https://t.co/LwnoqlX4eB

With construction costs increasing significantly there is a need to improve the way we design and construct our buildings to reduce costs and waste, but also to improve usability.

Appreciate public transport? Consider this North American example. Then go give your train/tram/bus driver a huge hug

I live in Baltimore, work in the county, and don't have a car. People ask "How on earth do you do that commute without a car??" I normally just say that its a run->train->commute for simplicity.

But the story is so much more than that. Let me take you on my daily commute.
