25.01.2022 People say that an @austinmaynardarchitects designed house is a little bit magical... well we have the proof! Watch as this man disappears... Some lock down reminiscing. A great project to work on in Brunswick - Union House. And a real first in Mass Timber. Shout out to @_natmiles... @cbdcontracting #clt #cltconstruction #sustainabledesign #masstimber #brunswick #melbournearchitecture #melbournearchitects #klh

24.01.2022 To end the week on a high note the whole team at Vistek would like to congratulate @nathanbenbow on being a finalist in 2020s Young Professional Engineer of the Year Awards. . Nathan has been a key driver in the Australian construction industry adopting mass timber and has helped us all make the move to a lower-embodied carbon approach to construction. . It has not even been a long career yet but is full of many outstanding highlights - a short show real of a few.... . 55 Southbank - the worlds largest mass timber vertical extension. At 10 storeys it is also one of Australias largest mass timber structures. . Ceres House - we think the picture alone explains the level of engineering skill required to help make this project a reality. (Thanks to @hynetimber for the pic). . Angelsea House - Australias first CLT home made from Australian manufactured mass timber. (Thanks to @xlamnz and @emmamitchellarchitect). . And Geelong Christmas tree - a "timber" structure with a difference. A 25m demountable structure designed to float off the pier at Geelong. Now a much loved fixture of G-Towns festive season. (Thanks to the team at CPS @instawagstaff @lordcourtney). Well done Nathan! #masstimber #engineersaustralia @engaustralia #sustainabledesign #sustainableconstruction #engineering #structuralengineering #crosslaminatedtimber #design #architecture #welldone #floatingchristmastrees

21.01.2022 Get your start in Mass Timber/CLT through our free online Technical Sessions and join us to help move the Australian construction industry to a low-carbon model. . For architects, builders, contractors - the whole construction industry Australia wide. . Go to our bio or website to find out more.... . At Vistek we have a burning ambition to help drive our industry do build with lower-embodied carbon and Mass Timber provides a pathway to that goal that can also deliver commercial advantages and better quality homes. . At Vistek we realised, if we wanted to get momentum into sustainable low-carbon construction, it is not enough for us just to help deliver amazing Mass Timber projects (such as level-aks Ceres House in the pictures) . so we started Project Seed a webinar delivered platform to help educate the broader construction community on how best take up the new opportunities Mass Timber presents. . So get in contact and we can all get our industry building better. . Big thanks to @hynetimber for the images, @xlamnz and @level_ak . #clt #crosslaminatedtimber #crosslam #glualm #sustainablebuilding #sustainableconstruction #architecture #sustainablearchitecture #green #sustainable #masstimberconstruction See more

20.01.2022 A big congrats to @vicbeam, @fjmtstudio and @irelandbrownconstructions on the Nunawading Community Hub. If this looks pretty big to you... you are correct. . 23 metre spans supported by glulam Warren trusses. . Stunning result and great working with VicBeam to deliver this project.... #masstimber #glulam #collaboration #details #trusses #warrentrusses #timber #sustainableconsturction #melbournearchitect

19.01.2022 A big congrats to the team at @breathearchitecture for a successful evening at the Houses Awards recently including two commendations for Bardolph Gardens... a project we had the pleasure of working on .

19.01.2022 Great to see a friend of Vistek (and a project we lent a helping hand to) getting the exposure they deserve. Well done @studiomoore on the amazing @rossfarm_

18.01.2022 A sneak peek at a project we did with our buddies @diadem_ddm at the refurbished Melbourne Central. Hopefully youll get a chance to see it soon in the flesh. #melbournearchitecture #lights #cbd #dancingontheceiling

17.01.2022 Looks like our neighbours on Collins are getting a lot done during the lock down... 447 Collins have removed the hoarding on William St and it is looking very smart. Nice work @multiplexconstruction__au @woodsbagot @shoparchitects #melbournearchitecture #lockdown #staysafe

17.01.2022 We teamed up with The Urban Developer to discuss the opportunities mass timber is creating for developers both big and small. A great read for anyone interested in sustainable building. #xlam #crosslam #sustainablebuilding #masstimber #clt

16.01.2022 Mass timber is transforming the landscape of Australian construction for the better. Click on our bio to learn more... #clt #masstimber #xlam #glulam #lvl #crosslaminatedtimber #sustainablearchitecture #sustainablebuilding

14.01.2022 A huge milestone took place today at 55 Southbank when Atelier Projects Pty Ltd installed the projects first CLT panel. To put this project into context this will be one of the worlds tallest mass timber buildings. However this no ordinary build. It is a vertical extension to an existing 6 storey building... and the existing building remains occupied as operating office spaces throughout the build.... Working with Atelier on this project has shown us the potential that deep collaboration across the design and construction teams can achieve and also it points to new frontiers in building that CLT can unlock. We are very excited about what the future holds for Mass Timber.

13.01.2022 Progress at the Nunawading Community Hub. Some lovely glulam trusses we designed... fabricated by the very talented @vicbeam team. #timber #glulam #structuralengineering #masstimber

13.01.2022 And... done! All the glulam trusses in at Nunawading Community Hub are in place. For a sense of scale that little orange dot in the cherry picker is a full grown man... yes, they are big! Great work @vicbeam and @irelandbrownconstructions #masstimber #timber #big #structuralengineering #glulam #vistek #trusses #nunawading #nicework

13.01.2022 Just returned from a site visit from Footscray where the client insisted we pop across to the legendary Ming Ming emporium to see its amazing roof... he even bought us a hat. #mingming #melbournearchitecture #footscray

12.01.2022 Great article on how Mass Timber can help developers deliver better projects - with a few special comments from our Business Manager Robbie Svars.

12.01.2022 ...and with the streets of Melbournes CBD deserted it feels like you are walking through a Jeffrey Smart painting... great self-isolating Melbournians! #selfisolation #staysafe #breakthechain #getthroughit #melbourne

10.01.2022 1 week... 3 mass timber design inspections!!! @vicbeam beauties in Nunawading, @_natmiles (@austinmaynardarchitects) Brunswick masterpiece and @sinjengroup + @standstruct work down the Mornington Peninsula (@xlamanz) If you are waiting for the mass timber revolution... it is already here! #clt #masstimber #sustainablebuilding #revolution #glulam #klh

10.01.2022 A cracker of a project we had a small part to play in is about to go live. @rossfarm_ designed by the very talented Andrea Moore (@studiomoore). One of our team just got back from a stay there... and never wanted to leave. Especially enchanting if you have a penchant for some classy timber details. #victorianarchitecture #sustainablebuilding #timber #vistek #design #architecture #interiordesign #escape @ Meeniyan, Victoria, Australia

09.01.2022 An update from 55 Southbank... looking good... A project that CLT made possible. Mass timber is not just more sustainable than concrete it can also be better commercially... got to love a win-win. Nice work @atelier_projects and @batessmart #sustainablebuilding #structuralengineering #55SB #melbournearchitecture #crosslaminatedtimber #masstimber

07.01.2022 A sneak peek at a project we have been working on - the Austin Maynard designed Union St. The CLT has been cleverly used to fit a generous home onto a tight inner-urban block in Melbourne, whilst also creating dramatic aspects and geometries.

06.01.2022 Earlier this week the Ballarat GovHub topped out in another milestone for this groundbreaking project. Well done to the team of @johnwardlearchitects, @aecom, @kaneconstructions and @standstruct . Been great supporting such a talented group and working on an amazing project. . #crosslaminatedtimber #crosslaminatedtimberbuildings #sustainable #masstimber #masstimberconstruction #cltconstruction #clt #ballarat #australianarchitecture

06.01.2022 Progress at Ballarat GovHub... another milestone... it has recently topped out. Thanks to @standstruct for the pics onsite (and great working with you on this job too). Stage 4 means this is as close as we will get for the time being... #masstimber #clt #glulam #crosslaminatedtimber #crosslam #sustainablebuilding @ Ballarat, Victoria

05.01.2022 Lovely weekend for a visit to Barry St Brunswick... @milieuproperty were proudly displaying their latest project (that we helped out with on the CLT design). Long journey with a fantastic outcome... well done to the team! @fieldwork_architects @brogueengineering @atelier_projects #clt #masstimber #klh #sustainablebuilding #brunswick #crosslaminatedtimber #timber @ Brunswick, Victoria
