Timber in Byron Bay & the Northern Rivers
Decks, screens, pergolas and bench seating built to sit in the weather down here and still look right in ten years. Hardwood, because nothing else survives this coast without a maintenance habit nobody keeps up.
Hardwood, fanned to a curve
A curved bench and planter on a suburban pool garden, with the boards fanned around the radius rather than mitred into a corner. It is more work to set out and it is the reason the shape reads as deliberate instead of as a straight bench that ran out of room.
How we work
Timber is what makes an outdoor space feel like a room. A screen turns an exposed corner into a private one, a pergola puts shade over the walk between the house and the pool, and a built in bench means nobody has to carry furniture out to use the garden.
We build in hardwood and detail for movement, because timber on this coast expands and contracts through the year whatever you do to it. Fixings are stainless or hot dipped near the water. Everything is set to weather to a grey silver rather than to need oiling twice a year forever, unless you want the oiled look and are honest about keeping it up.
