We are super excited to show you our #YSTproject, it was a true team effort from all involved and a particular shout out to the killer project manager Josh from @codbuild

Staircases:
The centrepiece of the home.
The detail everyone notices.
And hands down the most satisfying part of the job.
Built properly. Walked proudly.
The satisfaction of watching Jasmine tidy the Westringia fruitacosa, Rhagodia candolleanum, and Correa alba at our Godfrey Street project 🌳👌

The planting palette is the hero at our Godfrey Street project. A mix of Indigenous and native species work in harmony here to complement and soften the architectural lines.

You’ve seen the video.
Now watch it slow down.
Remove too much and the curve is lost.
After bending, the brass is faceted with
every line visible.
Each segment is hand-polished into a seamless curve, stopping at exactly the right moment.
Patina → QC
Polish → QC
Seal → QC
Image by image, this is the transformation behind the finish.

Remove too much, and the curve won’t match the others.
After bending, the brass is segmented. Faceted.
Every line visible.
Our finishers polish out each segment by hand, shaping a seamless curve while knowing exactly when to stop.
Then patina -> QC
Polish -> QC
Seal -> QC
Each step built into our DNA to make sure work leaves the door perfect.
A glimpse into the process behind what we do.

Every project has a moment where the material pushes back.
This is where Sujith steps in.
In this video, our production manager walks through the controlled process behind shaping 5mm brass to a tight radius where one wrong bend means starting again.
It’s a sequence of micro-adjustments, test bends, recalibration and patience… until straight segments begin to arc and the form takes shape.

One wrong bend and it's scrap.
5mm brass is unforgiving. Attempting to create a bend with heavy tooling can lead to fractures.
The solution is patience, precision and Attention To Detail.
Numerous adjustments, patient prototyping and eventually - a series of straight segments transforms into a curve.
