A facade that defines the home
A key priority for the build was ensuring the external facade delivered a premium, contemporary look while standing up to the environmental demands of the site. With bushland directly behind the property, achieving a BAL 29 bushfire rating was essential. This requirement placed added importance on selecting materials that were not only visually appealing, but also durable, compliant and low maintenance.
To achieve this, Casaview Homes selected PGH Shoreline Elkhorn bricks as the primary facade material. The bricks’ natural texture and soft tonal variation bring warmth and depth to the home’s exterior, elevating its street presence while maintaining a timeless feel. Beyond aesthetics, bricks are non-combusitible, making them well suited to the bushfire-prone setting and ensuring long-term performance with minimal upkeep.
