Nestled in the Titirangi Bush!

This was a particularly unique project for an expanding family. The structure of the building was designed using our engineered timber post and beam system, with open trusses in the family room for the extra height. Given the proximity of vegetation, a gabled roof was an obvious choice so that water collection could be optimized and gutters cleaned easily! The gabled roof extends over a very large deck that leads out from the family room – ideal for a property on a sloping area of land.

The slope led us to a split-level design, both to maximize the internal height and to help make the construction more efficient. The split in level also offers a natural break between social areas and the bedroom areas, which have a lower ceiling height and are placed towards the rear of the house. The house was also designed with future expansion in mind. It can be extended at the rear to provide for a large garage with space for a loft-room above it, should the owners wish to do so in the future.

This was the seed of Box™. A strong belief that the best way to produce the best homes was through builders, designers and customers working in unison, not against one another.

Success comes through an understanding, appreciation and trust of each other’s expertise. This results in great design – part of which is building pragmatism. This combination of design and build practicality also leads to a unique company culture.

We have designed the way we work on the premise that all projects tend to go really well until the cost gets in the way.

As a result, we take our customers through what we believe to be an industry-leading process: the successful dance of design flair, construction knowledge and budget guidance. 

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.
