JSC TMT TAIGA weatherboards

Architecture and design are two elements that work in harmony to create a visually stunning and functional space that brings joy to the homeowners. This North Shore home built and finished in 2022 is a prime example of how architecture and design can come together to create an ultimate living space. With uninterrupted sweeping views over the reserve, the design of the house plays a pivotal role in amplifying the beauty of the surroundings. The house’s voluminous spaces are intelligently designed to draw the eye out to the world beyond. The spacious decks seamlessly blend with the living areas, creating a fluid transition between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The entertainment areas on both levels offer ample space to enjoy with friends and family, making it the perfect spot for socialising all year round. The brief: a monochromatic palette, privacy, and low maintenance were key factors in this project. The client worked closely with LC Designer Homes to bring his and wife Pauline’s dream home to life. As an integral part of the project, he wanted to be involved in the design process, collaborating with the team to ensure his design vision was met. LC Designer Homes’ commitment to collaboration made the process seamless, resulting in a home that is truly reflective of the client’s unique personality and lifestyle.

The exterior: JSC TMT TAIGA vertical shiplap cladding coated in JSC scumble wood oil.

The exterior of this home is captivating, with its sleek and modern design perfectly suited to the stunning natural surroundings. The use of black monopitch roofs is a standout feature of the design, imparting a clean, contemporary, and minimalist look to the build. The mix of dark-stained vertical shiplap timber cladding, white bevel back cladding, and clean white plastered finished walls add interest to the exterior, with the colours standing out beautifully against the green backdrop of the reserve and sea landscape. The natural timber decks bring warmth and colour to the build, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The glass windows, doors, and glass deck balustrades are another highlight of the exterior design, giving the home a spacious and open feeling and connecting it to the surrounding environment. From every angle, the exterior of the home is a stunning composition of considered design and attention to detail, perfectly suited to its natural surroundings. Whether you’re relaxing on the deck or admiring the stunning views from inside, the exterior of this home is truly a work of art.
