Innova’s Nuline Plus weatherboards were chosen for their aesthetic appeal and resilience to coastal elements. The project showcases meticulous attention to detail through the use of Innova’s Intergroove ceilings, ensuring a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor areas. The combination of Nuline Plus weatherboards and Stratum weatherboards adds texture to the facade, making the Robe project a testament to innovative design and practical material choices.
Architect Tim Hodges’ commitment to the client’s vision led to a residence that perfectly integrates with its surroundings, emphasising the importance of coastal aesthetics. The use of Innova’s weatherboards and high raked ceilings enhances the ocean views and creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Beyond aesthetics, the choice of fibre cement over timber highlights its longevity and low maintenance, crucial in a coastal environment. The Robe project exemplifies the transformative capabilities of Innova fibre cement, turning architectural dreams into living realities that endure.
