VALLA
Building our home during the COVID disruptions could have been a difficult and stressful experience. We wanted to build a house that was simple, beautiful and elegant, and included all the ideas we had accumulated over time.
A modern barn in natural wood, dark metal cladding and concrete floors with a stunning entry, a mixture of Scandinavian and industrial style, a sustainable house provided with the last technology and a design touch.
We were very lucky to have found Dan, our builder who was willing to listen to our ideas, open to discuss each details with us, able to find a solution for every issues encountered during the process and to source the best material locally and interstate.
He and his team of craftsmen have managed to translate our dreams into an extremely beautiful, well crafted and cosy house”

‘With sustainability at its core, this home is designed with both safety and efficiency in mind. Built to meet BAL 29 standards for bushfire resistance, it features corrosion-resistant aluminium roofing, perfect for coastal conditions. The strategic use of thermal mass, including concrete walls and reverse brick veneer, naturally regulates indoor temperatures. Recycled timber bricks enhance thermal performance, improve insulation and reduce noise. The substantial PV system and 90,000L rainwater tank further increase performance, creating a comfortable, energy-efficient living environment all year round.’ ~ HIA NSW
