All in the CSR Family

Choosing the right building materials is all about a holistic approach to your build, which is why working with CSR is the smart choice.

Cohesion in design, style and even choice of material supplier is key to a long-lasting home. This is why many of Australia’s leading builders – of all sizes – choose to partner with CSR for residential projects. For the modern Australian home, a focus on stylish facades is prominent, it’s about creating a lasting impression from the outside in.

Hudson Ridge Builders

This Ballarat home by Hudson Ridge Builders specified Cemintel for the exterior cladding on the first floor, as well as the internal feature walls, while Hebel helped them create a smooth, rendered finish to the exterior of the lower level. Materials included were Cemintel Territory Woodlands Grey Gum for the upper levels partnered with Hebel PowerPanelXL (lower level).

The home was custom designed to include a striking combination of both materials, allowing the owners to achieve the contemporary look and feel they were looking for. A uniquely modern and Australian home holds style and intrigue from the outside.

“The combination of Hebel and Cemintel throughout the build creates a unique relationship between the interior and exterior of the home, reflecting the client’s contemporary style,” says Hudson Ridge’s Managing Director Darren Fraser.

Fraser was full of praise for Cemintel’s practicality and ease of use.

Reece Keil Design

The ‘Back to Front House’ by Reece Keil Design is another exciting project featuring Hebel and Cemintel. Located on Queensland’s Gold Coast, the house was named because the floorplan positioned the main living areas at the back of the house to maximise the views. The home is a showstopper for kerbside appeal as its unique design is a hallmark for modern facades.

The owners wanted to make sure that their new home was low maintenance, which is why Cemintel Territory Woodlands was chosen as the cladding, selected because of its striking appearance and minimal maintenance qualities.

Due to the prefinished nature of Territory, there is no touch up or repainting required even years after its installed, making it an easy decision for Keil and his client. “Once you install it, you don’t have to touch it again,” he says.

The owners also wanted to add a textural element through the cladding, so the top level of this home was clad in Cemintel Territory™ Woodlands Limed - a light timber-style product. This was contrasted with a black rendered finish of Hebel on the lower level, providing the striking appearance from the street.

Homeowners Angeline and Roger did extensive research before choosing a combination of Hebel and Cemintel for the exterior of their new home, built by Dawsonvu Associates. The goal for the build was to create a dramatic façade that involved classics with a modern twist.

Located in Forestville in Sydney’s north, the original building was a freestanding 1960s-era home that was not meeting the needs of their growing family. The couple demolished the existing building and rebuilt on the same site, with Roger as the owner-builder and Michael Dawson of Dawsonvu Associates as the designer.

The new two-storey build features a dramatic monochromatic exterior with a PowerPanelXL external wall system rendered in a clean white to contrast against dark Cemintel Edge cladding.

Cemintel Edge Cladding was chosen because of its classical lines, which are overlayed with a more modern twist. It’s an evolution of the popular V-groove cladding look, offering a variety of groove spacings to suit more contemporary designs. The smooth texture and crisp clean lines suited the modernist design of Angeline and Roger’s new home. It is also a popular choice for homeowners looking for a contemporary barnhouse aesthetic, or even the new Japandi look, if you’re after something sleek and minimal.
