Selecting Cladding Materials for Street Appeal
Durability, weather resistance, and visual impact
Well rounded and future friendly
Looking to downsize yet stay in the neighbourhood you love? These two high-end townhouses are designed for just such a buyer and are future-proofed into the bargain
Open to view
Long, low and with a vibrant brick wall as a spine, this home has its balance of walls in clear glass, creating a sense of the outdoors indoors and capturing stunning Bay views
Land of opportunity
This dual occupancy development offers two rammed earth dwellings that reflect a strong sustainable agenda – the project supports both tourism accommodation (one home destined for Airbnb use) and residential accommodation on one modest site
Lifestyle transformation
This reimagined farmhouse blends rustic charm with modern conveniences – spacious entertaining areas and separate sleeping wings accommodate a growing family
Bach sensibility with eHaus standards
This home is designed and built with the rigors of the Passive House Standard front of mind – material choices merge with the land while planning optimises outlooks and outdoor living
Stepping into nature
This pavilion home immerses itself with the natural world – each architectural element is designed to maximise breathtaking lake views, while respecting the surrounding environment – lower level volumes float over the land
Divided interests
Four gabled wings separate areas of use in this home, while providing shelter for an outdoor lounge – stone, metal and timber cladding connects with the rugged landscape
Enduring love
A contemporary rear addition with a West Coast-inspired vibe seamlessly merges with the classic look of the original home – enhanced living and sustainability mean it will be enjoyed by the family for decades to come
At one with the landscape
For this expansive farmhouse, three wings protect a central courtyard – cladding choices and undulating pitched roof forms connect to the landscape and mountains while glass wall-ended pavilions take in distinct outlooks
