Forest Bathing

Our Pickle Street project consists of the full renovation and addition of an original single-fronted Victorian terrace home.  Architecturally designed by Windust Architecture X interiors, the sits tightly nestled on a 6m wide frontage nestled tightly between two heritages listed homes. The build required a considerable amount of know-how, patience and finesse to navigate the inherent difficulty of the site. Our scope included the full refurbishment of the existing dwelling including replicating the front facade cladding. Upon entry, you are taken in by the bright whiskey library which is enhanced by the use of three large skylights that filter in copious amounts of natural light. Bold colours and detailed joinery is on show throughout the home creating a sense of wonderment and joy as you make your way through each highly designed and carefully considered room all leading you out to- the unexpected rear deck and pool. Quality in construction is unmistakable throughout this renovation and addition. A myriad of different build techniques has had to be used to achieve the bespoke and intricate architecture. Complex carpentry, highly detailed joinery and brass works, along with terrazzo tiling are just a few examples that come to mind. Extreme care had to be taken when building the rear pool which has a difficult interface with the foundations of the home and the large glazed sliding doors. Angular walls and exposed timber beams along with feature aluminium overlooking screens are all part of the quality on display throughout this renovation and addition.
