Beautiful Rammed Earth Cabin in the bush at Cooloolabin

A big part of our design work is colaborating with clients and working with them to create their dream space. When their dreams include Rammed Earth, timber features raked ceilings and high windows all in a compact cabin, there are some challenges. We really enjoyed seeing this plan come together and lover the photos of the finished product,.

Congratulations FEZ on a transformative renovation

The entry, pool and staircase were not working well at all. The renovation addressed all these issues and provided a modern & much more livable home

Congratulations Robin

We've colaborated with Robin Bristow a lot over the years & always admired & respected his work. His design for his own home has only cemented his reputation as far as we're concerned..... We regularly get Robin's design advice as we are going through our concept stage of drafting. (He's got a great eye for detail & is an excellent plan reader. Dan Reckons... I just watched Robin's video. That was fantastic! I've watched a few videos from the same producer before...mostly tiny homes on wheels. Over 600 comments on the video already and a lot of really positive feedback. Robin might be getting a whole lot busier." "A few clever Robin ideas....we might adopt for the future, but not sure everyone would go for them no doors/hallways really open up the space galley kitchen / laundry combo raked ceiling over the living adding that volume and feel of extra space entry through the study / second bedroom Even the little temporary balustrade worked well in front of the sliding doors. They did a great job selling the islands too....i didn't see any window or door screens though??" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdIPvtdGzMc

Xmas 2025

It’s time for us to relax and enjoy Christmas, but poor Rudolf will be under a lot of pressure to perform soon. So he slipped away for a quiet moment of contemplation… In that stillness, he reminded himself— and all of us— that Christmas isn’t just about rushing, delivering, or living up to expectations. It’s about kindness, patience, and the small gestures that help others find their way, just like his glowing nose guides the sleigh. So as we head into the festive season, may we all take a moment to breathe, to be gentle with ourselves, and to look out for one another. Be kind. Be merry. And may your Christmas shine bright— Rudolf would approve. A special thankyou to whoever built Rudolf & put him on our dunes... and a thankyou to AI (ChatGPT) which expanded nicely on my draft. (If only ChatGPT would give out thankyous for it's use of data)

Congratulations Stephen Donnelly

The owner's are very happy because their daughters are very happy. Two beautiful big new bedrooms and a renovated bathroom. Everyone a winner. (Matching in with the original builde's style)
