This is just the beginnings of a series of project pages and my CV, I hope to have it all completed and posted by September.

I’m Ross and I’m enthusiastic about better built buildings that are gentle to the Earth; healthy, comfortable, affordable and energy-positive homes where people can breathe easy and feel safe, protected and happy. We do know how to design and build (or retrofit) homes like these, we even know how to make them sequester rather than emit carbon, yet we continue to fall short with new building codes, while most of our existing housing stock is uninspired, disposable, toxic and uncomfortable. Better homes help people feel better, which is why I believe they can help save lives, as well as save on energy bills. Our families, communities and planet all deserve better homes. So where should we begin?
