Thanks for your lovely comments! We did owner builder. So there were quite a few things we did ourselves. The kitchen we probably spent the most on about $20k due to the shaker style cupboards & use of 2 Caesarstones but it was worth it because I'm very happy with our kitchen! As for our flooring upstairs we used a hard wood in jarrah.

Hi there, how did you go with choosing a render colour?

Re-did fly around model to correctly show rear decking and landscape idea, We have are about to start ground works

Great house design! I️ like the arches in the drawing rather than the 3D render however I️ don’t think that’s the only thing going on. The staircase leading up to it looks really heavy and narrow. I️ feel like the house is getting squeezed and it’s holding its breath! The rest of the design is clearly anchored into the site but the combo of tight rigid staircase, high arches and the vertical exposed bricks mean the front is out of proportion. Maybe make sure the arches are “wider” as per the drawing and perhaps the staircase walls are timber like the rest and I️ think the squeeze effect I️ see will be relaxed. I️ really hope this makes sense because when I️ read it back it sounds mad!
