Liveable housing is an emerging revolution in house design and compliance. With the introduction of the National Construction Codes Liveable Housing provisions, LHA has now become a key part of the future of housing in Australia for aging in place. LHA Australia describes livable house as:

​

"Founded from the National Dialogue on Universal Housing Design, the LHA Livable Housing Guidelines developed through this partnership define agreed best practice standards, providing a common language and reference point for livable housing in design and construction.

Certification of homes by Livable Housing Australia against these Guidelines, supported by a network of registered LHA Assessors, provides assurance that a home is easier to access, navigate and live in and that it is cost-effective to adapt as life’s circumstances change".

​

So if you are looking for your new home to have that level of sustainability into your future and a home you can truly grow old together in, talk to HCS about Livable Housing Standards and the process of certification of your new home or housing development.
