Trained as an Engineer at the University of Canterbury, Matthew comes to us from several years at the NZ Green Building Council, where he was responsible for the technical management of the Homestar programme. He is also renowned for his contributions to sustainable building education through his Home Style Green website and podcasts and is a board member of the Passive House Institute of New Zealand.
