Facade construction on our five bedroom family house in Bondi, being built by Mardini Constructions, is nearing completion.

A mixture of recycled and weathered Australian hardwood profiles is used in various sizes and spacings to form a veil of fixed walling, with integrated operable screens and shutters. The varying positions of these screens creates a continually changeable facade, at times revealing the building form and the home beneath.

On completion, the striking sculptural weathered building form will be softened by a lush new native coastal garden being designed by Beth Pickworth.
