Affordable Homes

Owning a sustainable home has never been more affordable.

Leading sustainable building companis ebode and Hybrid homes have come together to create the EKOKIT range of self-build eco houses that have been specifically designed to be flexible, sustainable and within the price reach of ordinary New Zealanders.

While the major components of an EKOKIT are prefabricated and delivered to you in a number of containers, EKOKIT is not a kitset in the usual sense – it is a system for building a sustainable home that minimizes the waste associated with traditional house building while also keeping the cost at a sensible and affordable level.

With a range of designs to choose from, you will easily find the right home to suit your site, needs and budget, and you can rest assured that all EKOKIT designs are based on passive solar principles, are thermally and water efficient and incorporate safe, healthy building materials.

The designs are extremely flexible, including innovative modular options that allow you to start off small and grow your home at a later date as your needs change.

EKOKIT homes can be built anywhere in New Zealand, under the supervision of a Licensed Building Practitioner.

The EKOKIT Difference

When you choose an eco-friendly EKOKIT home, you are making a choice based on more than the lowest up-front cost and the lowest allowable standards.
Our sustainable home designers not only work hard to make EKOKIT homes affordable and ensure they exceed current NZ building standards, but they also aim to reduce the environmental impact of building your home and minimize its consumption of resources throughout its life – so that your home (and you, its owners) will leave a healthy and valuable legacy for future generations.
That is why every EKOKIT home is designed with the following five principles in mind:

1. Take advantage of passive heating, cooling and ventilation
2. Optimize energy efficiency
3. Optimise water efficiency
4. Minimise toxic building materials and waste
5. Use locally made (Australasian) building materials where possible

The information on the next few pages explains in detail how the unique features of every EKOKIT home support these principles – giving you confidence in that in choosing EKOKIT, you are making a responsible decision that you and your family will benefit from and feel proud of for many years to come.
