The house is filled with natural light thanks to a generously scaled double height space at its core;
-
Large hardwood sliding doors with flush floor sills fully retract behind walls to directly connect the indoor living spaces with the outdoor living spaces, effectively doubling their size;
-
A white gloss, low maintenance kitchen conceals striking black cupboard & drawer interiors highlighted by a colour changing LED splashback;
-
The house features recycled grey ironbark feature walls, ceilings & stair sourced from a decommissioned hardboards' factory at Bundamba;
-
The polished concrete floor and honed concrete block walls add texture & an urban sculptural edge to soft native landscaping.
