It is the family museum and art gallery. Part clinic, part school, part
Lennock theatre and part garage. It is a memory of the past, host to the present
and promise of the future.
The following pages celebrate the very best our industry has to offer
in realising that dream, that idea, for clients of all shapes, means and
ASSOCIATE SPONSORS family compositions.
These pages showcase and celebrate a full range of awards from the
most cost effective and affordable to features and designs that, failing
that big Lotto windfall, will likely remain the thing of whimsy for most
of us.
The beauty of these award winning homes is not solely in their unique
entirety, but often in the little ideas that we capture and apply in
existing homes or when engaging to build anew.
They are practical and aspirational. The one attribute they all share is
the desire for, and investment in, quality. The mark of the Master Builder
is the desire to deliver that little bit extra. To not merely fulfil the client’s
highest expectations, but to go beyond them to deliver something
Canberra really special.

This well designed and built project hit the judges with
the wow factor. This was achieved by relocating the
laundry, creating a tremendous difference and opening
up the living and family area to the outside and the
attractive rear garden. The tradesmanship throughout

well done job beautifully designed and finished.
