Let's dive into the Coorparoo Project—a fantastic journey back in time! This 1969 post-war gem, wrapped in timber cladding, oozed character and potential.
We got creative, opening up the kitchen and lounge space by waving goodbye to two old walls (yes, even the load-bearing ones). Steel beams swooped in to maximize ceiling height, creating a spacious, open vibe.
But that's not all! The laundry, once a backyard adventure, is now comfortably back inside. We gave it a modern makeover, dressing it up with sleek joinery, stunning wall-to-ceiling tiles, and contemporary fittings.
Outside, we added a dash of charm with new Merbau hardwood decking, treated timber, and hot-dipped galvanized stairs and balustrades for the grand entrance.
This restoration was a nod to the past, a tribute to the original builders, and an invitation to new memories. Let's keep the good times rolling!"
