What do you get when you combine a well-travelled tradie with an English springer spaniel and a semi-urban section? A pragmatic home that’s as trendy as it is tactile.

 

With random width horizontal shiplap cedar and stratum board on the exterior, coupled with a large fireplace, and custom concrete benchtops, basins, and outdoor patio from the team at Creative Crete, the client’s eye for timeless materiality choices have elevated this property to new heights. Layout decisions future-proof the home for entertaining friends and (eventually) family.

 

For the roof, the client opted for True Oak® Corrugate in Ebony; and on the inside, graphite nickel hardware in keeping with the home’s modern industrial aesthetic. Elements of warmth radiate from the outdoor decking  - an area which is primed for socialising with built-in barbecue, outdoor fridge, bar learners, and a custom bed for Timber.

 

Inside, warm rusticated oak-inspired floorboards, copper accents, and natural timber add depth to an otherwise blank canvas - an ideal backdrop for a new home.
