Hidden in the heart of Queensland wine country, Barrel View was designed to reflect what is the most popular tourist attraction in the area: wine. Just a short drive from an assortment of Ballandean wineries, three barrels invite guests to experience the local countryside in a whole new way.

For such a unique project, the owners of the Barrel View architecturally designed and built the cabins themselves. The entire exterior is cladded in high-quality Spotted Gum timber, sourced from a local sawmill and precoated in CUTEK® Extreme CD50. To further enhance the protection of the timber, it was coated in CUTEK® Extreme CD50 and tinted with CUTEK® Colourtone, Sela Brown.

By adding a CUTEK® Colourtone to the project, this ensures the timber will retain its natural colour for as long as possible while also protecting it from the harsh Australian sun. CUTEK® Colourtones provide timber with UV protection, maintaining the desired colour of the project and highlighting the natural beauty of the timber.

About the
Professional

CUTEK® began as a problem solver in the market. We understood that timber is beautiful, however because it is a natural resource, it can have some inherent problems when using it to create lasting structures. The original CUTEK® formula was created to displace water from timber, giving it increased dimensional stability. We have then evolved to create other formulas included CUTEK® Wood Preservative, a decorative wood coating (that is able to be coloured) which makes timber resistant to mould, fungus and termites while also keeping it dimensionally stable.

CUTEK® is forever anticipating change and need. If someone wants to use timber in a unique way, or in a unique setting, we want to work alongside them, troubleshooting the problem towards an inspired solution.

We have always been, and always will be, champions for the use of the timber in the building industry. If you want to use it, we will help you find a way.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
