Take a look at a wonderful home created by through considered design and long consultation with the client.
The 18 month design process took us through a VCAT decision and careful, but bold decisions on the materials chosen.

Rooted amongst the grasslands and gums of Kangaroo Ground, Panel House exemplifies Custom Choice Builders’ skill for eminent aesthetics wrapped up with functional permanence.

A classic! Still very much relevant today as it was when we designed it some 23 years ago.
A compact 3 bedroom home with a hint of traditional Tuscan influences. A credit to the current owners.
This could be yours to own. Currently listed for sale.

Kangaroo Ground house complete.
Concrete tilt panel house and charred timber cladding.
Terrific result from all involved.


A few happy snaps before landscaping starts.

The skeleton frame that sits proud of the existing home is starting to take shape.
This frame will sit over the home and allow us to completely frame and clad the new second storey before remodelling the downstairs.
A brave client indeed!

Its great to see the clients enjoying the playfulness of the design of their new home and literally immersing themselves in the window within the 300mm thick concrete tilt panel wall.

Another home amongst the gum trees. This volumous single storey dwelling should sit very nicely amongst the trees of Eltham.
Soaring ceilings featuring exposed trusses and the use of stone will be a delight for our clients.

We take something old and turn into something new.
A peek around the corner of this tired facade reveals a sympathetic yet modern addition.

As designers we aim to be creative, and as such experiment with confidence on new forms of construction.
We have designed a home with insulated concrete tilt up panels that whilst being dominant in its position, it will also blend in nicely within the treed landscape on this acreage property.
Couple this material with charred timber panelling, I'm excited to see bring this home to life.

I like to dabble in what I draw.
Yes I built the steps and yes the landscaping by mwha.
Thanks to for teaching me the ropes.
