Residence Allure | A study in contrast.
Raw concrete and warm timber.
Private courtyards and open harbour views.
Filtered light and expansive glazing.
Every space within Residence Allure has been carefully considered - creating a home that feels both grounded and connected to its surroundings.
The glazing plays a quiet role throughout, framing landscape, drawing in natural light and dissolving the boundary between inside and out.
A home designed to be experienced, not simply viewed.
Your vision, without limits.

Framing Stone, Not Views.
Designed by @chenchowlittle and built by @robertplumbbuild, this remarkable garage space blurs the line between functional storage and architectural gallery.
Our scope involved the installation of 13 oversized fixed glazed panels, carefully detailed to sit between off-form concrete columns and the project`s spectacular sandstone walls.
Rather than drawing attention to the glazing itself, the design intent was the opposite.
Custom brass glazing channels, fabricated by @alsopengineering , were integrated into the concrete structure to minimise visual interruption and allow the sandstone to remain the hero of the space.
With access extremely restricted, every pane required detailed planning. Working alongside @completeglassprojects, specialist crawler equipment was used to manoeuvre the oversized glass panels into position, with each unit carefully rotated and installed through tight access points.
Enhanced by continuous LED lighting and designed around the client`s vehicle collection, the completed space feels less like a garage and more like a private gallery.

The "Spaceship House" has been a landmark on Sydney`s Middle Harbour since 1963.
Working alongside Rob Plumb Build and Billy Maynard Architects, our team was engaged to carefully upgrade this architecturally significant residence while preserving the vision that made it iconic.
What appears effortless today required an extraordinary level of planning, design and craftsmanship. Each opening varied in shape and dimension, with no two windows identical. A bespoke aluminium framing system was developed to accommodate large-format double-glazed units while maintaining the building`s original form, proportions and uninterrupted harbour views.
The result is a substantial improvement in thermal comfort, acoustic performance and long-term durability - achieved without compromising the character that has defined this home for more than six decades.
Sometimes the best glazing solution is the one you never notice.

Working with MCS Builders, the brief was clear - replace the original timber windows with a more durable system, without losing the character of the home.
A combination of G James fixed and louvre framing with Breezway Stronghold galleries delivers performance, ventilation and longevity.
The standout is the AAF Evergrain Textured Blackwood finish - a powdercoat that replicates the depth and grain of black timber, allowing the new aluminium systems to match the rest of the house.
Custom welded and angled subsill along with the sharp corner glazing detail ties it all together.
A modern upgrade that respects what was already there.
