Kingsland banner

This modern apartment, designed by SGA, has open space and interesting textures with concrete, timber and whitewashed ply linings. A rainscreen facade enabled us to “dress” the building over the primary cladding. The windows slide behind the rain screen when open, giving space and airflow in this urban dwelling.

The Insitu concrete and timber stairwell plays with light and volume.

Building features: Precast concrete panels, trespa rain screen over the primary cladding, whitewashed ply linings, insitu stairwell with timber screen, over- wall sliders.

About the
Professional

We are professional qualified builders of architectural homes and shop fits-outs.

Crate was established in 2013 by brothers James Strachan and Fraser Strachan after 20+ years experience building in New Zealand and overseas.

We provide detailed, accurate job costings and pride ourselves on adherence to your budget, working closely with your architect and suppliers.

Our projects range from residential new homes, residential additions and alterations, working with heritage or new buildings as well as light commercial, shop fit outs, furniture and cabinet making.

The Crate workshop in Kingsland gives us the ability to fabricate and prefabricate parts of the build off-site. The high stud warehouse enables an entire house to be prefabricated or elements including framing, steel fabrication, joinery and cabinetry.

We have a passion for building and work to a high standard that we hold everyone at Crate to work to. We have experience in a wide range of construction techniques and we love doing things that are different and challenging, pushing the boundaries and trying new things.

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.
