Scott Stewart used to fly in high performance aircraft with the Royal Australian Air Force. Now he helps architects, designers and builders with the high performance details of Passive House homes. Based in Woolgoolga, New South Wales LAB Design offers Passive House and thermal analysis services pretty much anywhere.

Liveable. Authentic. Bespoke.

After leaving the RAAF, Scott didn’t set out to become an architect or a builder. Instead he focussed on where he could transfer his training as an engineer and navigator. Understanding systems and paying attention to details are key attributes of both an aviator and a Passive House professional.

Scott took advantage of some excellent Passive House training available in Europe before he and his partner Madonna returned to Australia. The heart of LAB is liveable, authentic and bespoke design.

“Rainbow diagrams” analysing the thermal performance of building elements are one of the valuable services that Scott can provide to architects, designers and their clients.
