“We are seeking to adopt international best practice across our projects and in our operations.

We are strongly committed to addressing climate change, transitioning to 100% renewable energy, and adopting a circular-economy approach to materials.

Our Sustainability Strategy recognises the importance of all aspects of sustainable development and identifies actions we will consistently pursue throughout our work. We acknowledge the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and will seek to support their achievement wherever we are able.”

Ben Lisle Founding Director

Our sustainable design principles

Our Sustainable Design Principles are the lens through which we look at all project opportunities.

These Principles are in a deliberate hierarchy, moving from high order considerations through increasing technical detail to arrive at a comprehensive strategy for each project.

  • Public Good: Providing benefits for the wider community and the State.
  • Ecology and Landscape Led: Planning and design process respects and improves the existing site ecology.
  • Identity and Sense of Place: We research and incorporate the cultural and natural history of the site into the design.
  • Healthy, Safe and Inclusive: Ensuring everyone who encounters our developments is valued and cared for.
  • Optimal use of Resources: To be efficient with resources, consider the full life cycle of materials and the impact of our supply chains. We must also ensure that we measure and report transparently.

Hesperia has developed a set of sustainability initiatives and benchmarks to implement the Sustainable Design Principles in our project work. These function as a starting point for all Hesperia projects to embed in design, construction, and operations, referred to as the Hesperia Project Sustainability Standard Inclusions.
