Buildings aren’t keeping families healthy — and it shows in rising respiratory issues across the country. With 40% of New Zealand homes affected by mold, it’s clear our building practices are failing to prioritize well-being. The Building Act’s circular definition of “adequate” only makes real progress harder.After seeing too many poorly built homes, architect Joe Lyth decided to act. Through WEL Architecture, he’s raising the standard of what “good building” means — creating homes that are warmer, stronger, and smarter for the future.🎙️ Hear Joe on our podcast as we unpack New Zealand’s build-quality crisis and what it takes to change it. A Registered Architect, Certified Passive House Designer, and Homestar Assessor, Joe leads WEL Architecture with a focus on budget, beauty, and buildability — alongside health, performance, and efficiency.
