The opportunity for incorporating water saving technologies and designs into our homes is most obvious during renovations, especially when they involve decisions about the bathroom, toilet or laundry. This is also an opportune time to consider incorporating other water saving strategies like recycling water or collecting water from the roof.

The stories featured here cover the full range of home renovation: from minor facelifts for bathrooms or kitchens, to the major renovations of a Victorian terrace home and the redevelopment of a 19th century school building.
