In reflection we're happy to move away from this colour cedar as it looks more suited to a coastal environment.

The pavers create a nice line of sight. The thin vertical cladding is quite neat, Also like the addition of the concrete on the wall as a material.

The variations in the width of the vertical timber used here is really interesting.

Really like this combination of materials; concrete and timber. Especially this colour cedar and the varying widths,

Similar concept.

Interesting combo, maybe not relevant. Just keeping in as a comparison against the black wood and brown recess. Our preference is black.

Again; another comparison against black. Think that black cladding will lend itself to a better combination of materials.

Lighting: Steps with lights/battens are nice. Also this type of pergola structure opens and closes which could be useful in our environment.

Like the lighting and the framing of the door with the olive trees.

Again, the lighting created by the shape of the building is really interesting.

Pergola: Similar pergola structure to ours - we like the juxtaposition of the timber with the steel - nice harmony of colours

Pergola: As before and looks similar to our design. We are comfortable with the pergola being timber or steel.

Pergola: Love the climbers on the pergola.In terms of landscaping, quite a fan of the natural grasses around the immediate vicinity of the house.

As before, the natural grass look seems quite in keeping with the surroundings. Could be quite nice around the deck/stream area.

In terms of landscaping; anticipating some raised beds being included in the area of land where the master bedroom looks out north for vegetables.

Garage: Like the wide vertical steel look. Wonder if this could be a possible option for garage? Ensuring that it blends in appropriately with the house.
