Works
Construction of home development with the utilisation of a range of product solutions including garage doors, paint and external render.
Range of brands utilised
Life, Point Cook is a vibrant new community in one of Victoria’s fastest-growing suburbs. The development offers a range of homes with block sizes from 256m2 to 800m2 and is designed around a series of interconnected parks, conservation reserves and wetlands.
Providing architecturally designed three and four-bedroom townhouses, the project offers views of breathtaking natural landscapes. Home exteriors boast beautiful form and effortless function, inspired by the natural blueprint of the Fibonacci Principle. Interiors feature premium fittings, fixtures and finishes. Each home has a modern, porch-style entrance and a generous two-car garage.
The developer, Frasers Property, partnered with Porter Davis Homes to design and construct all homes.
High-quality, long-lasting products were specified throughout the project to ensure that Life, Point Cook residents enjoy a relaxed, low maintenance lifestyle.
Two-car garages
Each home was built with a two-car garage to maximise buyer appeal and minimise the need for off-street parking.
Durable interiors
Our home is where we live, work and play. For this reason, it was essential that surfaces were durable and could withstand repetitive washing and cleaning.
Low maintenance construction
‘Low-maintenance living’ was a key selling point of the development, so all products used were selected to provide long-lasting performance and minimise maintenance requirements.
Easy sample ordering
With project specifiers able to order physical samples, textures, colours and finishes could be viewed on site prior to application, assisting with decision making.
Washable surfaces in high-traffic areas
Homes are high-traffic areas with walls subject to frequent knocks, scrapes and scuffs, so it was vital that common areas walls were durable and washable. When applied to plasterboard interiors, Dulux Wash & Wear delivers a hard-wearing acrylic finish that can be continually washed.
Safe and reliable garage doors
The roller door systems installed across the development needed to be reliable and safe while providing owners with the luxury of a dual-car garage space.
Thermal Facade System
Exsulite is a fully integrated lightweight thermal cladding solution that is an alternative to traditional masonry systems. Exsulite is a Codemark® certified full system offering design flexibility and energy efficiency.
Durable exterior protection
Dulux Weathershield was used to provide durable barrier protection against dirt and UV damage for home exteriors. It provided an aesthetically pleasing outcome while improving surface washability.
Long-lasting performance
Dulux products were used across interiors, exterior facades and roller doors to provide lasting visual appeal, support consistent usage and offer protection for years to come.
