Two stories of luxury showcase timber in exceptional style, featuring Vulcan timber fins and cladding.
Vulcan timber fins feature on the upper level and on the pool-side cabana wall, while the garage door and lower level entry facade - and even the window trims - feature Vulcan Cladding.
All Vulcan timber was coated with two coats of Straw Protector Oil, and one coat of Teak Protector Oil as the finishing touch.
The rich warmth of these finishes forms a natural connection throughout, bringing together the grounds, pool and luxury design of the home.
Behind the luxury design (by John Lewis Architects) - and clever layout of indoor and outdoor areas - is an equally impressive commitment to installation details (by Time Builders).
The upper floor fins are 175mm x 40mm in 3m lengths, and were slotted from behind and chemically anchored onto a steel plate. This means there is no visible fixing from either the front or the sides.
Similar techniques were applied to the cabana ceiling (100mm x 40mm in 4.8 m lengths), utilising steel rods that were chemically anchored into the concrete. Battens were attached to the rods, to help keep the battens straight and create a hidden fixing system.
Vulcan timber, being so light and stable, allowed for this installation option.
