As a Joint Venture, Rebeka from BuildHer Collective and her husband John, teamed up with seven DevelopHers to create two architecturally different, yet complementary and sustainable homes, by pushing the traditional boundaries associated with property development in Melbourne’s leafy northern suburb of Fairfield.
The North House:
Customised polished concrete floors create a beautiful base leading you through the home. They set the tone for the warmth that you can expect through all the other rooms. A warm and calming palette has been used throughout, textures creating subtle differences and elegance.
The vision for each home was always to create distinct spaces that will speak to the homebuyers’ sense of identity.
Using clean, fresh and contemporary lines, a sense of openness and an abundance of natural light, the look will be softened by materials and finishes reflective of north- side style: sophistication and edginess served with a side of character and personality.
The collaboration model lends itself to a unique opportunity for communal involvement, from planning and funding to design and construction, BuildHer Collective mentoring and guiding each step of the project on this exciting journey
Arming yourself with knowledge and immersing yourself into a community of like-minded woman is one thing – but leaping into a Development with 8 women and putting your cash where your passion is another!
BuildHers ability to be able to provide this opportunity to women in our community is so rewarding. There is so much to be gained from having hands on experience in management, design, building and the sales process. To have responsibilities to help move the project forward and have someone to ask those questions that you might otherwise been too shy to ask is just one way to maximise your growth.
We congratulate the Buildher8 ladies for jumping up at the chance and staying with us to the end!
