PARTNER PROFILE
porter davis In 1999 three guys in their early 30s who had been working in the building industry saw a gap in the market. They realised that several critical elements missing from the industry - a guaranteed site start, architecturally-design homes that offered considered spacial planning, and homes that were built using materials. The result was Porter Davis, a home builder with a vision for offering landowners the perfect home to build on their property. Keith Fuller joined the Porter Davis team in mid2000 as a Senior Designer and brought with him his wealth of experience in architectural design. Working closely with fellow Senior Designer, Randall Pye, the pair focused on creating the ultimate lifestyle for Porter Davis homeowners, taking the architectural offering to a whole new level. A change in the philosophy of floor plan design saw the development of homes that featured large master bedrooms, dressing rooms and dual walk-in-robes, as well as large alfresco living areas. Explains Keith, “The client base encompasses a very broad demographic, with the largest house we design is around 54 to 60 squares including the garage and alfresco areas.” Right from the outset Porter Davis developed an incredible team of interior designers, supervisors and construction professionals. Importantly, they also concentrated on developing strong relationships with key supply partners including companies like Reese, Coco Republic and National Tiles. “There’s a lot of really great product available in Australia, however our goal was to ensure our clients not only have access to the best products and the latest designs, they also receive the best prices.” When Porter Davis launched World of Style in 2014, it was designed to offer clients an innovative, creative space. The World of Style showroom houses product from their major supply partners and encourages clients to work with the in-house designers, like the National Tiles team that is based in the showroom, to select the best possible materials that suit their budget. It’s an exciting and inspiring concept where you can experience first-class interior and exterior design. “It’s important to have an overall idea of what your aesthetic is, and what appeals to you, and then the design team can really help pull together the materials that will create a synergy throughout the home in a way that works with your vision of how you want to live in the home,” adds Keith.
