25.01.2022 Alterations and additions project in Brunswick taking shape. The colored screen has been designed to give the loft space privacy, limit views into the neighbors while maintaining long deep views into the park beyond.

24.01.2022 The living spaces in this new house open out to a generous north facing courtyard. Ideal for letting in sunlight in during the cooler months. The overhang and pergola are designed to create shade in summer. Minimal external painting ensures longevity

23.01.2022 The Hearld Sun featured one of our houses in their Saturday living section recently. The article is also now online https://www.realestate.com.au//how-an-old-brick-cottage-h/ Thanks to Joanne Hawkins for the content.

22.01.2022 Recycled remilled Australian Messmate.

21.01.2022 Building small is the best way of reducing the embodied energy of a building and the ongoing energy usage of a dwelling. With good design reduced building size should not equate to reduced amenity.

20.01.2022 Great turnout on a balmy morning at the climate strike in Geelong today. There was a positive feeling that people are empowered and enthusiastic for change.

19.01.2022 Textured natural materials feature in this new Torquay home, including local bluestone and Australian recycled timbers. #recycle #naturalmaterials #bluestone #timber #messmate #sustainable #sustainableliving #greenliving #ecoliving #local

19.01.2022 It’s time to enjoy being at home. Our homes are hopefully one consistent thing in our lives that, in these crazy times, can offer space for relaxation, for a sense of calm in this chaos.

16.01.2022 On site today at a new house in Coburg. We have used Radial Sawn Silvertop Ash cladding on the street facade with an oversized white cypress LVL post at the entry.

14.01.2022 Recently completed alterations and additions project in Brunswick

14.01.2022 We used recycled bricks in this project to match an existing building. The bricks look good in a new context.

13.01.2022 This porthole view visually connects two living spaces together increasing the sense of space in this modestly sized new home. Cathedral ceilings also add to the sense of space without compromising on the thermal performance of the house. #buildsmaller #sustainableliving #embodiedenergy #carbonreduction #sustainability #sustainable #sustainabledesign #green #greenliving #ecohomedesign #ecofriendly #ecoliving

11.01.2022 New addition in Brunswick sneaks up for a peak out towards Melbourne CBD.

11.01.2022 We have lined the entry walls to this house in North Coburg in a blackbutt ply to add warm, texture and a sense of robustness.

10.01.2022 A detail from a new house we completed twelve months ago.

09.01.2022 In construction a new house in Thornbury with north facing glazing looking out onto a private courtyard.

09.01.2022 New north facing seat off a children’s play area

08.01.2022 This is a 110m2 house. The average new house size in Australia is 233.3m2. The plan for this house works hard and high raked ceilings add to a sense of space so the house does not feel small.

07.01.2022 Efficient energy usage for heating and cooling is only part of the solution for a sustainable building practice. A holistic approach to material use / reuse, building size, lighting and appliance efficiency, building longevity and maintenance are all part of the sustainable living picture.

07.01.2022 Using natural timbers in spaces adds to a dynamic that isn’t tangible.

06.01.2022 Kitchen detail to port hole at a new house in Jan Juc. The port hole connects upper and lower living spaces and allows for a visual connection and cross ventilation throughout the house. #sustainability #sustainableliving #sustainable #eco #ecofriendly #ecoliving #green

04.01.2022 We used recycled bricks in this project to link the existing building with the new. Using recycled materials is a good way of creating new, from something that already exists and thus saving embodied energy and reducing landfill. #sustainability #sustainableliving #sustainablehouses #sustainable #eco #ecofriendly #ecofriendlyliving #green #greenliving Hilary Bradford Photography

04.01.2022 North facing window seat beckoning relaxation

03.01.2022 Photography day new house Jan Juc. It’s always good to see a project come to life through the interpretation of the client and the eyes of the photographer.

02.01.2022 Article on the North Coburg alterations and additions project by Elana Castle for Habitus Living online makes for a good read!

01.01.2022 A recently completed house in Torquay. All north facing with aspect out over the pool to the garden beyond.
