A unique log house blending ski lodge charm with modern farmhouse aesthetics, featuring microcement finishes that harmonize with nature, creating a seamless and organic living space in a beachside country town.

he only way I can describe this one-of-a-kind home is ski lodge meets modern farmhouse.

This unique home is tucked away in the beachside country town and is a true escape from reality.

Project overview:

Bringing a modern twist to classic property, the goal was to bring nature into the home, utilising finishes that stand on their own as features but don't overpower the space; synergy was the key.

Finish decided:

Microcement - Xbond polished

Colour - Fullmoon

New or existing concrete?

Existing - complete renovation of an existing home

Scope rationale and alignment to the brief

Microcement was used to best meet this brief for a multitude of reasons.

  • Textural and tonal variation is present in every microcement surface. Each surface is hand troweled, creating a unique surface every time; this creates a natural earthly appearance and feel. This perfectly blended with the other raw materials and finishes in the room.
  • Microcement is a breathable material meaning moisture can freely permeate in and out of the surface without risking delamination.

Additional processes to meet the brief:

  • Floor levels over in-floor heating in the bathroom floor to sit level with timer flooring
  • installation of brass threshold stips on doors

Outcome:

A bright, seamless bathroom with a natural & organic look and feel showing homage to the home and surrounding landscapes.

Professional Reviews

1 / 7

“.Brayden's work ethic and attention to detail are faultless. The work he completed for me wasn't a typical project and presented many challenges, this not only highlighted Brayden's ability, but also how knowledgeable he is about all things concrete and finishing. A true professional and master class concrete & finishing guru. (Worth noting that I'm an architect and as a result a very fastidious client!)”
