The global trend for sustainable house design is raking root in Australia. In 1993 the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (RA1A) adopted the International Union of Architects' Declaration of Interdependence for a Sustainable Future. RAIA recognises outstanding contributions to environmental design through its Ecologically Sustainable Development Awards. The RAIA, Archicentre, has unveiled an environmental demonstration home in the Sydney suburb of Newtown as a model for renovators who wish to make their homes more environmentally friendly.
