Your collection

Three quick choices set your facade, roof and cladding — takes about a minute.

1

Choose your collection

Sets the facade material and performance capability for your custom build.

UrbanModern · efficient

Double-glazed windows and doors — thermal & acoustic performance for infill sites.

CoastalRelaxed · light-filled

COLORBOND® Ultra steel — corrosion resistance for salt air and coastal exposure.

WildernessResilient · remote

BAL-FZ capable — maximum bushfire protection for regional and remote sites, with off-grid options available.

HeritageTimeless · character

James Hardie™ weatherboard façades with traditional verandah detailing.

RetreatCompact · off-grid

Fully off-grid — solar PV, battery storage and rainwater harvesting mean these compact modules can go almost anywhere.

ResortPremium · five-star

Premium resort chalet design — built for luxury accommodation and tourism-grade comfort.

2

Roof style

Choose the roofline that suits your site and collection.

Roof pitch is confirmed at working drawing stage based on your style and ceiling height combination.

We aim to keep overall height under 4.2m from finished floor level (FFL) to ridge, reducing the risk of requiring a Western Power escort during transport.

3

Cladding preference

Indicative only — confirmed at design stage based on your site conditions.

Axon™ Cladding
Hardie™ fibre cement · vertical panel joints

Sustainably manufactured fibre cement — low embodied energy and non-combustible for a longer building lifecycle

Linea™ Weatherboard
Hardie™ fibre cement · horizontal weatherboard

Fibre cement made from sustainably sourced materials — durable 50-year design life reduces long-term waste

Shadowclad
Grooved plywood panel · vertical shadow-line joints

Made from FSC-certified plantation timber — a renewable, low-carbon material choice

COLORBOND®
Pre-finished steel cladding · colour confirmed at design stage

Fully recyclable steel with a long service life — reduces material replacement and landfill waste over time

Shou Sugi Ban
Charred vertical timber boards · deep black finish

Traditional charring preserves timber naturally without chemical treatments — extends service life from a renewable resource

Cladding preference is indicative — confirmed at design stage based on your collection and site conditions.

All cladding is installed over a thermal break with an integrated moisture/weather barrier, in accordance with AS/NZS 4200.1 and NCC condensation management requirements.

That's your exterior locked in — next we'll size your home and add any extra spaces.
