About us

At Abode we specialise in elegant, tailored design and construction solutions –
including new builds, renovations and extensions. We integrate three major
disciplines essential for successful project outcomes; intelligent design, informed
project management and excellent construction.

All of this happens with utmost transparency, in a collaborative and supportive environment. Projects are carried out by our in-house design team, with every design
and construction decision based on our core “customer first” approach. As every client is different, every project is tailored for individual expectations. Many home owners see the issue of heritage overlays as a daunting prospect. Not at Abode, where
we thrive on heritage overlay projects and understand all the key aspects involved.

We are here to help and we have the experience and passion for our work that enables optimum outcomes
for you. Our reputation depends on delivering outstanding, stress-free design and construction and that’s
exactly what our team delivers – with a commitment to premium quality in everything we do.
