At the end of 2015, bushfires swept through Wye River destroying everything in its path. It was at this time that Architect Andrew Simpson received a call from a client he’d just completed a house for in inner Melbourne. ⁠ ⁠ 

The client was asking Andrew to now turn his attention to imagining a replacement of their cherished coastal getaway, which apart from the concrete driveway had been reduced to Ashes. ⁠ ⁠ 

With a clean slate and being conscious of the proximity to the sea, Andrew realized that MagnaFlow™ was the sensible choice to not only provide unmatched aesthetics but also ensure protection from corrosive environments and a bushfire-prone area. ⁠ ⁠
