Taking home multiple awards is the ‘Showhouse 5’, by Louise O Architects and the team at W3O, with interior designer Tiggs Crozet. Showhouse 5 has been awarded Best Architecture, Best Interior Design, Best Landscaping, and Best Build, by multiple prestigious judges.
“The last time we designed a home for a Century HomeShow, it was a home that everyone wanted, but not everyone was able to afford,” says Louise Osborne of Louise O Architects. “Times have changed significantly in the last 11 years, and once again we set out to design a dream home, but this time the goal was to make it more affordable without losing any of the important aspects of great design and style.”
With a stylish layout designed around maximising the amount of garden space on the property. By maximising the connection between garden space and each room, beautiful light travels throughout the home, a signature-Louise O connection with nature bringing an overall sense of calm throughout this home.
“Our goal was to build a home that offers unbelievable value for money, complete with top quality, high-end finishes. Through clever designs, many joint years of great experience in the industry, and economies of scale, we achieved our goal of making dream homes a reality, not just for the fortunate people who get to buy this particular showhouse, but many other families too,” says Louise Osborne.
Other homes at the estate like ‘Showhouse Number 1’ by Studious Architects and Bloc Developments, was awarded Best Use of Technology by Duncan Pike, Tech Editor from Stuff Magazine. The home is a striking three-level masterpiece seamlessly connected by a central staircase.
