As our buildings are improving in energy efficiency, good envelope design is as important as it has ever been. For a successful holistic design there is a host of items that designers need to consider, that sometimes comes with tradeoffs. In this episode we're speaking to Mark Dewsbury a Lecturer of Architecture and Design at The University of Tasmania about:

• How our buildings have been improving over time,
• The tradeoffs between ventilation, durability and sustainabiltiy
• And best practice design strategies for holistic design
