Design Professionals for Natural Building (DPNB) is a group of Canadian engineers looking to help enable natural building by considering and enabling the use of local material options to fulfill the needs,and values of a community, with the overarching goal to promote a legacy of healthy communities through healthy soil and water systems.

Our Team

WASP Tecla Printed Structure

GoodvinDesigns

We specialize in the design, energy efficiency, performance, and building science of alternative material assemblies like hempcrete, AAC, stabilized earth, 3d construction printing, and more.  

Engineering the Future

What happens when you combine over 15 years experience in natural building, robotics, 3D printing/AM, and advanced modelling? Add in a permaculture design perspective, a love for accessible technology, and a giant heap of building science/enclosure design based around passive solar and solar thermal elements, then things really start to get interesting.

Current design focus is on building components, wall assemblies, root cellars, and cob ovens. Considerations for planetary construction designs and methodologies. Mycelium integration.

Goodvin Designs and 3DSpace Terraform Inc.

How is Goodvin Designs (GD) related to 3D Space Terraform (3DST)? 


Goodvin Designs is the engineering application of alternative materials in building construction: research, prototyping, data collection, reporting. GD also consults professionally to enable local code approval of alternative material use in construction - like hempcrete - working with the structural engineers and architects to achieve best practice and performance.


3DST is the design and application arena centred around additive manufacturing and 3D printing in construction, but with a focus on local material use. 3DST is also focused on helping set up resilient and capable communities, opening housing and food security access, and leveraging 3D printing technologies to inspire local industry.
