Arden Homes Wins 2024 HIA Australian GreenSmart Award for Sienna 28

26-08-2024

At Arden Homes, our commitment to sustainability has been officially recognised with the prestigious 2024 HIA Australian GreenSmart Award for the Sienna 28. This award not only acknowledges our dedication to environmentally responsible building but also showcases our focus on delivering homes that are as efficient as they are beautiful.

What are the HIA Australian GreenSmart Awards?

The HIA Australian GreenSmart Awards celebrate innovation and excellence in environmentally responsible housing. Builders and designers across Australia compete for recognition in categories that highlight sustainable construction techniques and products. The Sienna 28 was judged based on its environmental design, innovative features, construction, visual appeal, liveability, and cost-effectiveness.

The Winning Home

Our Sienna 28 home is a testament to what sustainable living can look like. From the moment you step inside, it captivates with a seamless blend of modern design and eco-conscious elements. The sun court at the centre of the home allows for natural light to flow through, reducing the need for artificial lighting while enhancing the home’s spacious and inviting feel.

Key sustainability features of the Sienna 28 include:

  • A high-performance thermal envelope with smart orientation, superior insulation, double-glazed windows, and excellent air-tightness, ensuring a stable indoor climate with minimal heating and cooling requirements.
  • A 6kW solar system paired with battery storage for increased energy efficiency.
  • Energy-efficient, all-electric appliances, including induction cooking, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, and a heat pump hot water service.
  • 7-star energy rated on all orientations.

Environmental Impact & Cost Savings

Beyond its environmental design, the Sienna 28 is built with the future in mind. 
The energy-efficient features of the home are designed to save future occupants year after year on their energy bills. This not only translates to significant cost savings but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions—showing that sustainability and liveability go hand in hand.

At Arden Homes, we believe that sustainability doesn’t have to come at the cost of style or practicality. The Sienna 28 is on display at Alamora, Tarneit, and serves as a perfect example of how sustainable homes can be both efficient and family-friendly.
