Hi there, I’m Elsie.
-
Here at PHPP Design, we focus on using the PHPP (Passivhaus Planning Package) software as a thermal design optimisation tool.
I’m a big fan of using intuitive graphics to understand the data in PHPP.
The software excels at testing iterative scenarios! So, my goal is to help architects, builders and homeowners understand and decide their optimal performance specs based on their priorities, by testing countless what-if scenarios.

For certified Passivhaus professionals, I’m also here to streamline your Passivhaus certification process, I can take care of the PHPP modelling & manage your certification, or simply provide ad hoc assistance with your PHPP.
If you’d like to start a conversation, shoot me an email at elsie@phppdesign.com.au
Looking forward to chatting!
Best regards,
Elsie
About me
I am a Certified Passive House Consultant based in Sydney, Australia.
I completed my Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Civil Engineering at the University of Sydney. Following my studies, I worked as a Structural Engineer for a few years, before coming across the Passivhaus (Passive House) Standard.
In my engineering work, I was lucky to work with many award-winning architects and builders on some pretty amazing houses, sculptures, and commercial structures.
I’m a big advocate of form and function. I believe in beautiful designs that also fulfill purpose and efficiency!
Now I consult on thermal modelling using Passivhaus methodology. I love working in this space where building design combines with science and sustainability.
