A resilient coastal retreat in Wye River, Victoria, designed by Architect Andrew Simpson, featuring MagnaFlow™ for enhanced aesthetics and protection against bushfire risks.

At the end of 2015, bushfires swept through Wye River destroying everything in its path. It was at this time that Architect Andrew Simpson received a call from a client he’d just completed a house for in inner Melbourne. ⁠ ⁠ 

The client was asking Andrew to now turn his attention to imagining a replacement of their cherished coastal getaway, which apart from the concrete driveway had been reduced to Ashes. ⁠ ⁠ 

With a clean slate and being conscious of the proximity to the sea, Andrew realized that MagnaFlow™ was the sensible choice to not only provide unmatched aesthetics but also ensure protection from corrosive environments and a bushfire-prone area. ⁠ ⁠
