PROJECTS

PADDINGTON #4

This beautiful Paddington Terrace was originally four individual apartments and we were given the task of converting the entire building into one residence. Working with the designers CM Studio this was quickly realised that this project would be a special build.

With the hero features such as the use of Carrara Marble throughout and the use of Brass fixtures and fittings this was truly a luxury terrace home. Steel Windows and doors were introduced in the new extension of the house with Timber windows used in the heritage portion of the house.

The joinery was a major feature in the build and design with again the use of stone benches and brass detailing. With this bespoke joinery came an enormous amount of detail down to the last scree, even the hanging rails in the wardrobes were inlaid in brass.

The build had some challenges also with a nearly a 100-year-old building the structure has some issues. The brickwork was crumbling with the absence of the old lime mortar, this all had to be rebuilt. The existing structure was under pinned and the two-storey residence was suspended temporarily whilst the new structure was built below. Being set below a busy Paddington St the building had a steady ingress of water that had no doubt been a constant for many years. The solution to this was that the entire sub-basement area was removed and replaced with a concrete slab with a 2.0m high concrete wall to the perimeter which resulted in a watertight solution.

Working side by side the Architects a fantastic result was achieved, and the project completed in 15 Months.

Project Testimonial

Needless to say this project enjoys the best quality of building work on any project we have ever completed. We had undertaken 5 new build and 4 extensive renovations before embarking on the Paddington project and this has been the smoothest. This is a credit to the builder BAU Group and the Architect C+M Sutdio.

They are very flexible to suit your needs and listen to your requests. Absolutely nothing is too hard or too much trouble ever. They have great ideas and solutions to the inevitable problems that happen along the way.

—Kylie & Peter Green—

"BAU have exceeded our expectations in their attention to detail during the build. Every effort has repeatedly been made by them (and others) to work with millimetre tolerances and alignments so crucial to our overall design. In doing so they have had the greatest respect for our aesthetic and the ambition in our design. We could not be happier with the result in what we believe is a triumph in its simplicity"
