DESIGN & SUSTAINABILITY
The legacy we leave for future generations starts with living more harmoniously with nature today. Society 1056 is designed to be low-impact, habitat-healthy, and pedestrian-friendly. Solar energy for the estates all-electric homes means greater efficiency and lower household costs, as well as a healthier living environment for the family. Hardy, shade-producing trees provide a cool refuge from the summer heat. Parks and waterways support a strong biodiversity mix and connect via walk and bike paths to encourage eco-friendly movement for people and native fauna.
KEY FEATURES
SOLAR EFFICIENT
Good solar orientation and better home design captures sunlight to warm during the winter months, and provide shade in summer, ultimately to give residents abundant access to cheaper renewable energy and lower household emissions. This initiative is expected to save 8,000 tonnes of CO2 annually.

CLIMATE RESILIANT
It’s no secret that Australian summers are amongst the hottest in the world. To protect against the effects of extreme temperatures, we’re greening the community by planting four trees for every home, resulting in over 5,200 new trees. Large-canopy shadeways, and Miyawaki-inspired micro forests are built into the design, and work to cool the surrounding area by up to 7 degrees, significantly reducing the urban heat island effect.

ALL ELECTRIC
Gas is an expensive, high-emission fossil fuel. As Australia moves to phase gas out, we’re staying ahead of the curve. Every home at Society 1056 will house all-electric appliances which will lower emissions and household running costs, and create a cleaner, healthier indoor environment.

BALANCED BIODIVERSITY
We’re creating a habitat for life to thrive at every level. Green spaces, pollination corridors, and large-canopy trees aren’t just attractive and inviting, they improve the health of our air and water, lower the urban heat island effect and encourage rich biodiversity by attracting native birds and insects.

COMMUNITY FOCUSED
Recognising the importance of social connections, we have built more spaces into the masterplan that encourage connection, and encourages moments between community and nature. The design fosters an environment where children attend school together, play together, and families socialise together. Residents can actively engage in local sporting clubs and community-based activities. Walkability and pro-social spaces promote healthier lifestyles, and interaction, making Society 1056 a truly exceptional and fulfilling place to call home

LOW IMPACT
To leave a lighter footprint, we’re committed to using recycled and lower carbon materials in the development of Society 1056. This reduces waste and the emission-impact of construction.

WATER WISE
Water is a precious resource we can’t afford to waste. Here, the streets are designed to capture and direct rainwater for landscape irrigation. Residential water tanks reduce reliance on mains water and create more resilience during dry spells.
