In the realm of construction and landscape design, the concept of beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
When those eyes belong to a skilled builder and landscape designer who also happen to be a couple, the result is a stunning transformation of dilapidated homes. Hamish and Lucinda, professionals in their field and proud homeowners, acquired a deteriorating property nine years ago due to termite damage. With the assistance of a dedicated team of builders and other experts, they successfully completed renovations in 2020 amidst the challenging circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, their home stands as a testament to their vision, featuring a new elevated extension with four bedrooms and inviting kitchen and dining areas that seamlessly flow into a concrete alfresco space.
To achieve a modern yet timeless aesthetic, Hamish and Lucinda opted for sustainable and recycled timbers, complemented by grey tiles and black matte finishes. These carefully selected natural and earthy elements create a captivating curb appeal that is both captivating and subtly enticing. Inside the home, timber plays a prominent role, providing a warm contrast to the polished concrete floors and white walls, thereby striking a harmonious balance.
For the exterior cladding, Hamish and Lucinda turned to CUTEK® Extreme CD50 in combination with CUTEK® Sela Brown Colourtone. This choice guarantees that the Silvertop Ash cladding maintains its natural color while gaining added protection against the damaging effects of UV rays and moisture, courtesy of CUTEK® Extreme CD50’s unique properties. After investing six years in renovating their home, Hamish and Lucinda chose CUTEK® as a reliable solution for long-lasting timber preservation, ensuring that the innate beauty of their home’s timber features remains intact.
