Gymea Bay house II first floor

We have reached lock-up stage at the first floor of the Gymea Bay House II project. The new bedroom volume is clad in an off-white aluminium panel. The roof is finished in the same colour as the walls to make the whole crisp block appear to be floating above the established landscape. 

We are looking forward to seeing the ground floor completed in the new year.
