Cost-conscious clients keen to refurbish without overcapitalising say Cantilever’s new streamlined design-and-build service saved them time, money and stress, doubled their return on investment, and transformed their tired house into a home.
Drawn to Cantilever’s refined aesthetic and commitment to quality, Millie and David embraced a collaborative design process that has crafted moments of joy in a tailored design solution.
After 36 years in a beloved family home in Pascoe Vale South, a pair of empty-nesters briefly considered flying the coup. They landed instead on a transformational refresh, reconfiguring downstairs spaces, improving thermal efficiency, and reinstating flow for themselves and their close-knit, intergenerational family.
The city dwelling of a freshly retired couple; who are now kindling their love of rural rolling plains and fruit trees during the week, prefaced the project as ‘the weekender’ to enjoy friends, family and our city’s bounty.
Each room in your home has its own purpose and atmosphere, yet a harmonious home considers how they feel collectively. Mark and Lyn, the owners of this South Yarra apartment, have achieved this harmony, through restrained use of colour, tactile finishes, a Japanese style influence, and a preference for Australian materials and craftmanship.
This spacious, architecturally designed apartment was brimming with potential, located in the inner-Melbourne neighbourhood of Carlton, with the city, restaurants and of course, excellent coffee at its doorstep. All the apartment needed was a new owner to bring the space to life. That’s where Lucy came into the picture.
Personality, colour and functionality were key reference points for this clever, within footprint, renovation. The result is a vibrant, considered and comfortable home, designed to effortlessly adapt to family life and entertaining. Our clients, Melissa and Johnny, couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
Matt and Peter didn’t expect to settle into the northern suburb of Coburg, nor did they expect to grow so fond of it. However, it was their search for the ultimate ‘renovators delight’, liveable but with plenty of future potential and of course, a nice size backyard for Frankie, the French bulldog, that led them to this eclectic, vibrant, community that they now love and feel a strong bond to.
Introducing our K3 Kitchen System in SoftTouch Black. Claudia and Juliet are the happy first owners of the new edition to Cantilevers’ product family, and we recently caught up to talk about their renovation journey, and how the experience of their new home, and Covid Lockdown has changed their lives.
This warm, family home brings a softness in palette and materiality, creating an inviting home equipped to partake in the rituals of daily life. Working within the existing footprint of the home, this relatively small renovation has made a big impact, revitalising the interior, encouraging a free flow of movement and creating a home equipped to handle the ongoing demands of family life now and into the future.
Preferencing re-creation over replacement and designing with best outcome front of mind; has enabled Vivian and his family to transition to Apartment living, in this unique location, exchanging backyard for beautiful horizon.
