REBIRTH OF A 1960’S CLASSIC The photos of the existing show a house that had good bones but no life, the young family wanted a contemporary home with new life and so a rebirth was required and the birth was dramatic. The elevated portion of the home was extended providing larger more spacious bedrooms, the red brick was cement rendered giving a modern and inviting feel and the existing sandstone panel was retained and added character next to the new modern front door.

“Kevin was referred to us by a friend after we admired their renovation. We were extremely happy with the services that he provided. He was an attentive listener and took a great deal of time to get to know my husband and I, our lifestyle, family situation and future goals. We started with a very dated 1970's home and Kevin transformed it into an ultra modern contemporary home. What we love most about the design is the clever use of light, the open plan, cathedral ceilings and the seamless flow of inside to the outside, capitalizing on the beautiful bush setting. It is a beautiful home to live in and share with our family and friends. When people first enter the house their first word us usually "wow". We would highly recommend Kevin. We were delighted to show him the finished project last week as we sipped coffee on our beautiful deck.”
