    ShOw_Me_ThE_MoNeY, not sure if you have sorted out your dilemma on the issue of aspect of a property yet.

    I’d recommend a good reference book – Warm House Cool House by Nick Hollo (Choice Books) is available at most good libraries. It’s a basic guide to Australian designs for low energy housing for comfort year round. It contains clever designs and plans to accommodate for extreme climate state by state.

    Good luck.

    HI Julie,

    Your comments here are so informative, thank you for taking the time to write them.

    We just purchased a house and land package in Ipswich QLD.

    The front of the house itself faces North , the living areas/ kitchen are on the South east side and all the bedrooms are on the west side.

    In hot climates such as this is this the best aspect? Or not? I had a choice of a few different aspects. Not sure I have chosen the best one here.

    Please advise what you think the issues might be.

    Thanks so much

    Vikki
