Corridor with timber panelling and artwork

Reference configuration · To be confirmed

Stairwell Feature Panelling

A stairwell is the hardest place to panel because the wall is never straight and the light rakes across it. Every panel is notched at the plant for handrails and switches, then numbered so the installer works from the bottom up.

Scope supplied

Timber veneer panelling to the stairwell and the first-floor corridor
Concealed storage doors integrated into the panel line
Plant-notched cut-outs for handrail brackets, switches and power
Batten layout drawing issued ahead of the wall being lined

Reference data

The decisions that mattered

Numbered for installation

Panels arrive numbered with a layout drawing, so a stairwell with thirty panels is assembled in order rather than sorted on site.

Batten layout first

The batten layout is issued before lining so the wall can be made true — panelling only looks flat if the wall behind it is.

Concealed doors in line

Storage doors are built into the panel run with no architrave, so the corridor reads as one continuous surface.

Double-Height Living PavilionA living volume two storeys high needs joinery that holds its line at distance. The work here is mostly about proportion: how high the display shelving goes before it reads as a bookcase, and where the TV niche sits relative to the eye line from the sofa.Curved Ceiling Family LivingA curved bulkhead forces every vertical panel under it to be measured individually, because no two are the same height. We template the bulkhead on site, then cut each panel to its own dimension.Timber Bedroom SuiteThe whole wall is one piece of joinery: robes at one end, a headboard panel in the middle, and a concealed door into the ensuite at the other end. Getting the door reveal to line up with the robe fronts is the whole job.Dark Handleless Apartment KitchenIn an apartment the kitchen, the laundry and the robes are all visible from the same seat. One board reference across all three is what stops the interior reading as three separate purchases.Green Dining & Kitchen RoomA painted island only works if the spray shop and the board supplier are coordinated. The island carcass, the tall storage and the banquette were all sprayed in one batch so the colour is identical across the room.
