Home is a special place to all of us, deeply personal and unique. Our home can have a powerful effect on the kind of life we lead. It can improve our health, well-being, creativity and even our relationships.
A healthy building nurtures the health and well-being of its inhabitants.
Hopefully, this little book will help you to create the best possible living environment for yourself, your family, and your workplace. I believe you will find improvements in chronic conditions, relationships, and general resilience. Your wellbeing, creativity, joy of life, and productivity should increase, improving your quality of life.
Buildingbiology is the study of the holistic relationship between humans and their indoor environments. Mould, air quality, electro-pollution, Feng Shui – these and many more elements of a healthy home will be explored, with countless tips on how to make your home a better place.
Joachim Herrmann is one of the pioneers of Buildingbiology in Australia. Since 1992, he has helped many individuals, families, and businesses to live better lives in healthier indoor environments. He also created the Healthy House Australia certification, to give peace of mind to anyone wanting to build or buy a healthy home according to the international Buildingbiological Measuring Standard.

About the author
My interest in Building Biology dates back 30 years, when I started studying natural building methods, energy efficiency, indoor pollution, dowsing, Feng Shui, Sick Building Syndrome, bio-harmonic architecture and sustainable building. I realised that our health and the environment we live in are interacting on many levels, and healthy building is one of the foundation stones of good health. I am currently (since 1992) practising as an Indoor Environment Consultant (Buildingbiologist, Cert BBE, NZ). In this capacity, I conduct home and office consultations throughout NSW to improve health and productivity, often in conjunction with other holistic healing professionals like allergy specialists, child therapists, naturopaths or integrative medicine practitioners. Throughout my career, I have gained enormous satisfaction from seeing the changes to clients’ lives which can come from applying simple, natural principles to their built environment.I also provide an informative website and an interactive Facebook Page (Buildingbiology Australia), as well as giving public talks to promote Buildingbiology in Australia.Another area of expertise is project-managing renovations and building projects according to Buildingbiological Standards. The Healthy House Australia certification is awarded to homes that are built according to our high standards.
