In a busy family home, practicality often takes priority, but who says you can’t have both functionality and style? Precisely what Geoff Heath Building Pty Ltd achieved in this home. Beautifully designed, it combines modern elegance with the low-maintenance durability that family life requires. For the designer, the vision was clear: transform a rundown 1970s red-brick cottage into a contemporary oasis inspired by Palm Springs. "We wanted a home that reflects our country roots while embracing a modern aesthetic," explains the designer. "Every decision was driven by family's needs and lifestyle."
Easycraft panels are 300% tougher than plasterboard, making them the perfect solution for a busy home near the coast. This knockdown rebuild start to finish in seven months. This project highlights the range of substrates and profiles offered by Easycraft, seamlessly integrating with functional design. By incorporating General Purpose, Wet Area Interior, and Semi-Exterior panels, Geoff Heath Building has successfully created spaces that are both beautiful and functional.
The open-plan living area is a highlight of the home, where easyVJ panels add depth and texture to the walls without overwhelming the bright and airy atmosphere. The minimalist kitchen, designed with efficiency in mind, features General Purpose easycraft panels that beautifully reflect light, enhancing the fresh and contemporary design while providing a practical, easy-to-clean surface perfect for high-traffic areas.
In areas like the bathroom, easycraft’s Wet Area Interior panels offer the perfect solution. The bathrooms demonstrate the panels' durability, maintaining their beautiful appearance even in high-moisture environments. easycraft panels’ moisture-resistant properties make them ideal for the home’s kitchens and bathrooms. These areas not only look stylish but are also designed for easy upkeep, crucial for busy families.
Geoff Heath Building Pty Ltd carefully selected easycraft's Semi-Exterior panels to elevate the home’s outdoor spaces. Designed to withstand exposure to the elements, these panels are perfect for covered patios, verandas and alfresco dining areas, offering a blend of durability and style. This choice ensures a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living areas, maintaining a cohesive look that endures coastal conditions while providing a fresh and enduring look. This project is truly a labour of love, with Geoff Heath, the builder and husband of the designer, pouring their expertise into every detail. "Working together as a family made this project even more special," she reflects. "We were committed to creating a home that serves our needs and showcases our personal style."
