At Mathura Road we celebrate the achievement of a special project that is really very rare. Located in the prestigious Toorak, and consisting of six single level luxury residences, in an exercise in sheer precision in architecture, interiors and landscaping, observing craftsmanship of the highest standard.
Bricks are often thought of as bricks. What many don't realize is that color and quality vary drastically depending on the raw materials available. In this work, the desaturated color palette forced the team to look beyond Australian shores for a bricklayer of suitable character, reaching Las Losas in Spain.
There were several visits from the group of architects, together with our distributors in Australia: , to synthesize a new color suitable and perfect for this work.
These purpose-built, hand-made pale bricks were ideal for Mathura's tactile facade and a great example of the meticulous research approach applied to each project.
