Scott James Builder
Project: AlburyDesigner: N/APhotographer: WyroWebsite: https://www.scottjamesbuilder.com.au/An in-fill site, it was a challenge to design a family home of the size and scale on such a steeply sloping site. Major excavation creating a series of five tiers over the site was the solution. Maximising northern solar access while capturing easterly views and maintaining privacy from neighbours required thoughtfulness. From the set-up of floor coverings to the junction points in material changes, there is tremendous forethought & planning in the execution of all work. The home has been built from classic red bricks from the premium Daniel Robertson range. Steel wall & roof cladding is by Colorbond. The double-glazed aluminium windows & doors have commercial-grade frames from AWS. Whether it is the grooved vaulted ceiling, the stone-clad fireplace, the cobble-stone driveway, large format porcelain tiles, inclusions are premium & speak of understated luxury.

Trethowan Building
Project: East AlburyDesigner: N/APhotographer: Jeremy Weihrauch - WyroWebsite: https://trethowanbuilding.com/The restored 1960s beauty was extended to make better use of the home’s large front yard. The clients see this as their forever home, so future-proofing through considerate design and quality finishes was a high priority. The home consisted of three bedrooms, with two of the bedrooms upstairs and the main living, bathroom, Laundry and third bedroom downstairs. The renovation included opening the living rooms and reconfiguring the kitchen to create a connection between it and the living areas. The new alfresco at the rear of the home takes advantage of the views up to Eastern Hill.

Gilchrist Homes
Project: AlburyDesigner: Gilchrist HomesPhotographer: Devlin Azzie, Threefold StudioWebsite: https://gilchristhomes.com.au/The complete internal regeneration of this family home in Albury’s prestigious Doctors’ Point was a special project. The highest quality finishes were selected throughout to accomplish the finished product - a seamless integration of technical detail and high-quality, refined design. This four-bedroom, two-bathroom home received an entire renovation, having been stripped right back to its bones. Room layouts were adjusted to create a large open-plan living area, kitchen with a walk-in pantry and separate theatre room. Bespoke feature steel and timber glazed doors were introduced to zone the new spaces and work with heating and cooling, ensuring comfort in all areas of what was previously a ‘cold’ house.

Trethowan Building
Project: AlburyDesigner: Trethowan BuildingPhotographer: Rhys HollandWebsite: https://trethowanbuilding.com/This charming 1920s red brick needed to be brought back to life and into the 21st century. The new design includes an additional bathroom, a second living area, separate Laundry and an open-plan living which flows onto the alfresco and overlooks the existing pool. The design was thought out to ensure all space was utilised, and the home was made future-proof while keeping and restoring the 1920s charm.

Project: Ashford 33, BarandudaDesigner: Hayden MoonPhotographer: Captured SpaceWebsite: https://hadar.com.au/The Ashford 33 is a design that focuses on achieving the best value for money while still providing the large and open spaces clients have come to expect from Hadar Homes. The lot had a fall of approximately 700mm diagonally across the site, which meant the siting of the house was important to the design in order to achieve minimal cut and fill, and to include a multi-use outdoor living space and lawn. The finished build included three living spaces, four bedrooms, a double garage, kitchen with galley and separate walk-in pantry, ensuite with bath, walk-in wardrobe to the master bedroom, open study, Laundry, alfresco/pergola with built-in-kitchen and fire and storage.

Project: ThorntonDesigner: Anna Spiro DesignPhotographer: Paul West PhotographyWebsite: https://hedgerconstructions.com.au/Located within a private golf course and having consideration to conditions regulated by club management, this home had a diverse range of factors to be implemented into the brief. To be set into a significantly sloping hillside and an orientation to take in the sweeping views across the golf course to the Cathedral ranges, this home was intended to be bespoke in all aspects and based firmly upon design features that were inherently significant to the clients. Extensive indoor and outdoor entertainment areas, including spa area and open verandahs, were intrinsic in design. Material selection was based upon assuming a natural and earthy farm manor design, with timber being a key feature.

Below this is a large open-plan kitchen and living zone, with a further level of living and bedrooms on the ground floor. The home includes a cellar and gymnasium.

Project: ThurgoonaDesigner: JJ Carroll BuildersPhotographer: Rob Lacey PhotographyWebsite: N/AThis project is an upmarket estate with a brief to build a low-maintenance, high-end investment. The owners wanted the development to be timeless with as little maintenance as possible, but also wanted to be complementary to other houses in the estate. The townhouses were built to create minimal privacy issues within all of the neighbouring properties, and the development fits into the streetscape beautifully. This development has created much-needed rental accommodation in a quality area.

Hansen Yuncken Pty Ltd
Project: Greater Shepparton Secondary College, SheppartonDesigner: N/APhotographer: Anthony McKee PhotographerWebsite: https://www.hansenyuncken.com.au/The construction of Greater Shepparton Secondary College generally consisted of demolishing the existing Shepparton High School and constructing a new government secondary school to support an enrolment of 2700 students. The school site was developed around the Enterprise and Innovation Centre. This is in turn surrounded by three ‘neighbourhoods’. Each neighbourhood is comprised of three ‘houses’, which act as the home base for 300 students and their associated teaching, leadership and support staff. Each house has its own identity but is connected by the associated neighbourhood with central administration, including a Neighbourhood, Assistant Principal, Student Services, STEAM, VCAL and Learning Resource Centres.
