Architect: Toa Architects

Services Provided: Full project management

This build is a compact but high-end residential home. We worked closely with Toa Architects to finetune the finishes and details of this design. 

Here, Jana’s design knowledge was utilised by the client for the colour and interior aspects of the project.  

The site is in a high-density area; therefore, the intention was to create light and elevated views while still retaining privacy. Stand-out design features of the build include lofty ceilings and pop-out windows to maximise space.

Timber sarking was used to create a feature ceiling and feature walls throughout the home and polished concrete floors contributing to the spacious feel.

A curved interior wall inside was the result of Lance and his team’s precision and craftsmanship.

This home was built to be totally supported on the outside – remove each internal wall and it will still stand solidly.

"I have had the pleasure of working with Lance and Jana of Hutton’s Builders since 2015. We have worked together on a range of projects both residential and commercial. Hutton Builders epitomize quality in their craftmanship and professional conduct. Lance and Jana strived to do everything in their power to deliver their product in a quick and timely matter without compromising quality. I have always found my expectations for projects met and exceeded upon completion of their work.

I felt like I could call or email Lance or Jana at any time with questions, concerns or instructions. They were a valued point of communication within the construction team. Communication within the Hutton Builders team was great. I could effortlessly visit the building site and talk to the builder/site foreman and Jana and Lance were made aware of every instruction or message and proactively implementing things before I had spoken to them directly.

Jana was an immense help, carrying out a lot of the interior design from helping narrow down colours to proposing tiles, materials, light fittings, door hardware choices and more. It saved me a lot of time and stress as Jana knew exactly the look I was going for and where to source the materials and items required. Having a designer within the building company able to liaise with Lance, the other builders and organise the subcontractors necessary; ensured that the vision for the space was carried out to the very last detail and a stunning result.

I wouldn’t go to anyone but Hutton Builders for any work I need completing in the future. Thanks Lance, Jana and everyone else at Hutton Builders for your hard work, constant professionalism and unparalleled quality."

“Hutton Builders were a pleasure to work with on the West St project.  Lance and Jana were honest, good communicators and genuinely cared about the process and end result.  At West St there were a number of complex details and strategies; more attuned to a commercial project than a small residential house – the workmanship, attention detail and care factor bought this project to a great completion.”
