Turn your bright

IDEAS INTO REALITY

Walk into any Chelbrooke display home and you won’t find a salesperson in sight.

Maximise your site

Instead you will be greeted by a design consultant with years of building experience, whose sole brief is to work with you to turn your bright ideas into an affordable reality. You will find our process from design to handover as one of transparency and teamwork, with you as the most important team member.

So let’s get started Do your homework Join Australia’s most popular weekend pastime - visit a major accredited display village. You’ll find Chelbrooke Homes on display near the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. All are crammed with design and interior décor inspiration, and all offer insight into building costs. You can now start determining what we call a working budget and then prioritise your plan requirements with a design Wish List. Use our simple DESIGN WISH LIST form by downloading it from our website or pick one up from one of our displays. You’ll find all your planning requirements prioritised. Here are some hints in establishing your design and budget guidelines.

Your block will determine home size and configuration. By maximising the north and east aspects, introducing larger roof over-hangs to the western side and siting the home for cross flow ventilation, your savings in heating and air-conditioning can be considerable. Our in-house design consultant can help you in all aspects of this.

Low set homes

These offer the best value for your building dollar. By rule of thumb, two storey homes cost half as much again as the low set floor area.

It’s not all about the house

It’s easy to forget about the outside. Landscaping, fencing, lifestyle facilities, pool, garden and play areas. Try and build this into your total budget; after all, interest rates are at an all time low and there is nothing nicer than moving into your Chelbrooke turnkey home.

Use our computerised design library then customise

As Queensland’s biggest custom home builder, we have developed a unique design analysis program that allows us to input your bright ideas, budget and site configuration, then output an initial floor plan from which you can fine-tune your personal touches and turn your dream into reality.

Work with the professionals

With your “wish list” finalised and a basic floor plan developed and the budget fixed, it’s now time to complete full working drawings. An integral part of this process is the professional expertise from award winning building designer Stuart Osman from Stuart Osman Building Designs. As well as providing your detailed approved plans, Stuart completes detailed approved plands for your council building approval and lodgement.

Stuart Osman Design Studio, Burleigh Heads

Even the best of us find balancing the building budget with the “Design Wish List“ a challenging task. Do you compromise on size or quality of finishes? The answer, where necessary, is both. Here is some advice offered by award winning designer Stuart Osman.

Trimming the size of the home

A few hundred millimetres here and there can make a huge impact on the budget.

Bathrooms, ensuites, powder rooms

Reconsider the number. If you’re building two levels, try keeping the plumbing in line.

Tiling

Costs per square metre vary greatly, but an inexpensive tile can look just as good as an expensive one and after all, they wear the same.

Ceiling heights

Restrict higher ceilings to the entry or first impression areas and stick with standard heights elsewhere. However, we do recommend adding height to the home theatre. This is now a standard Chelbrooke Homes feature.

Windows

Louvres, although ideal for the Queensland climate, are certainly the most expensive. Be sensible and use louvres selectively to help cross flow ventilation in conjunction with fixed or sliding glass. Unit 2/71 Township Drive, Burleigh Heads

Soil test drilling

Foundations IT’S WHAT’S DOWN UNDER THAT COUNTS

Waffle pad foundation

Australia is a great continent, rich in minerals and host to a plethora of soil conditions. Soil conditions for each building location can vary greatly, with some providing the perfect base for your new home foundation, others providing more of an engineering and building challenge. Ultimately your foundations need to be built with perfection to support the structure and to protect your family and your investment. The very first step before designing and building your own home is soil testing. This is a science that we pass on to the best in the business, STA Consulting Engineers. Their mission: to provide “smart and effective foundation solutions” for all our clients. SOIL TESTING (or site classification) is essential for residential, industrial, commercial and institutional buildings in order to understand the sub-surface conditions before foundations can be designed.

With the engineer’s report in hand, Pods and Reo are entrusted with the estimation and supply of the specified reinforcing materials to Chelbrooke Homes. The foundation team then excavate and construct in accordance with the specified engineered solutions. Where the site dictates a state of the art waffle pod system is required, EPS expanded polystyrene is used to form a grid with the specified reinforcing steel positioned and concrete poured to provide the strong backbone for your foundations. This is the cleanest and most efficient building process. Other advantages of the waffle pod system include:

Creates air pocket insulation between the soil and your slab.

Minimises impact on the environment with less soil disturbance and removal. Complies with or exceeds all relevant Australian building codes.

E P

STA Consulting Engineers are the largest residentially focused engineering company in Queensland, with over 20 years of soil testing foundation designs and structural knowledge to provide peace of mind for builders and homeowners. STA comply with all relevant Australian standards including AS2870, ISO 9001:2008 and we operate our own NATA approved laboratory.

The stability of your new home is directly related to the security of the foundations. Chelbrooke Homes excavation, concrete and construction teams are extremely competent in all types of building blocks and subterranean soil conditions. They are highly skilled and exceptionally adept in sloping block construction.

Selecting your bricks -

AS EASY AS ABC

The style and presentation of your home is set by your choice of colour and the texture of your brickwork. While many people choose to render their exterior, using coloured bricks can enhance and provide that prestigious look.

Why choose bricks Sustainable – Natural, recyclable and energy efficient.

At ABC Bricks, we recognise the importance of being able to see the options in situ and even being able to touch and experience the different textures.

Temperature control – With proper design, your home will be warm in winter, cool in summer.

Our new Gold Coast headquarters has a purpose designed display centre with specially designed selection tools, all created to make the selection of your exterior scheme easier.

Design flexibility – whatever the design or colour trend, there’s a brick to suit your individual needs.

There is nothing like seeing colours and textures in real life, so just stroll through our external display area and talk to our onsite team, professionals with years of experience working with Chelbrooke Homes who’ll make sure you select the right product for your new home.

More than bricks Bricks & Blocks – PGH, Boral, Austral, GB Masonry, Adbri. Pavers & Walling – Claypave, Edenstone, Custom Pave, Chelmstone, Masterstone. Landscape Supplies – Raw materials in all sand, soils, gravels in bulk or conveniently bagged. Cements & Glues – Cement Australia quality – all in handy 20kg bags.

Low maintenance – Enduring colour so no need to paint.

Acoustic – reduces noise and lets you enjoy a quiet haven. Strong and safe – Durable, non-combustible, termite resistant, won’t rot or decay. Cost effective – lower upfront costs and virtually no ongoing costs.

Brightideas: 1.

Do not lay wet bricks as an accurate indication of brick and mortar colour variation cannot be gauged. Also, a wet brick may cause efflorescence to appear.

2.

The industry standard for viewing brickwork is from four metres back. Brickwork should be viewed as an assembly, not brick by brick.

3.

A brick laid is a brick accepted by the bricklayer, builder and the owner.

Sealers & Additives – Klen, Macroshield. Builders Hardware & Tools – From trowels to wheelbarrows and brick saws. Steel Reinforcing – Stockists of ONESTEEL. Quick delivery of ALL mesh and bar. We ALSO stock Lintels!

GREATER RANGE OF DESIGN OPTIONS

The choices are endless, the colours vast and the result a pristine durable modern external cladding to your new home. Your Chelbrooke Homes design consultant can walk you through the choices and profile options in the Hardies range. Combine with your brick and rendered walls to add that premium architectural feel for your low set or two storey home. Made from advanced lightweight cement composite, Hardies cladding such as the Scyon™ range will resist shrinking, swelling and cracking as well as holding your paint finish longer.

Enlarges your internal footprint Composite construction allows you to get the most out of your site as composite walls take up less room than traditional methods. An average 12m x 15m single storey home gains another 8 square metres of living space.

Call 13 11 03 for information and advice

Maximises design flexibility

jameshardie.com.au

Composite construction allows the house to be designed to suit the contours and levels of the block and encourages the use of split-levels, adding interest to the external elevation and livability to the interior.

The world’s largest fibre cement manufacturer In the mid 1980s, James Hardie pioneered the development of cellulose fibre cement technology, and began designing and manufacturing a wide range of fibre cement building products that make use of the benefits that came from the product’s durability, versatility and strength. Using the technical and manufacturing expertise developed in Australia, James Hardie then expanded its operations to become a world-leading, specialised, high-technology manufacturer of a wide range of fibre cement building products. Today, James Hardie is the world’s largest fibre cement manufacturer, with manufacturing operations in the United States, Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines.

Save time and money Integrating composite construction into your design makes the entire building process simpler and faster. Trade people on site are minimised, materials are easier to move around site and the build process quicker. In double storey homes savings can be even greater through a reduction in scaffolding costs and less need for structural beams.

Responsible sourcing is OUR BEGINNING

Giving you more affordable living space “The more savings we can make through our suppliers, the more square metres of living we can give our clients,” says Peter Riewoldt, Managing Director of Chelbrooke Homes. The Chelbrooke team works with all suppliers to ensure that every component going into your house represents quality, is at the best price and is sourced responsibly. All our suppliers are market leaders and innovators and all are very conscious about product resourcing.

Responsible sourcing “Timber is a vital ingredient to home building and our suppliers take a zero tolerance approach to illegally logged timber which we applaud,” says Peter. They ensure that the countries and communities from which the products are sourced have legal and sustainable operations, with

good working conditions and fair treatment of people. More than 99 percent of all their timber products are sourced from low-risk plantations or other legally verified forest operations.

Responsible building management of your new home Building a new home is an exciting journey and we encourage your participation to watch and experience your dream materialise. To work with you on a daily basis, we appoint a special client liaison officer. Au fait with your colour and finish selections, their job is to keep you informed of the building progress, and arrange meetings between yourself and your site supervisor who controls your site, building progress, material delivery and sub-trades. As an experienced builder, your supervisor will ensure that all aspects regarding quality and compliance of your new home are met.

THE WORLD They are literally the windows to your world, your access to the outdoor and Queensland’s lifestyle and importantly a substantial contribution to the style, look and ambience of your new home.

It offers infinite design possibilities with unique configuration, coupling options, maximum panel sizes and looks to inspire.

The Chelbrooke window and door choice is almost endless: Your Chelbrooke display home has most of the options built in and demonstrates the difference between the standard range and the Boutique Platform Series.

Screening Solutions:

Why Thermal

INSULATION?

Non-insulated Wall

While we all love our Queensland climate, the summer heat that passes through the roof and ceiling will certainly compromise your home’s comfort and energy efficiency, not to mention your power bill. Austral Insulation will help control the amount of heat that enters your home. Using state-of-the-art thermal insulation materials such as Bradford Gold wall and ceiling batts, heat transfer through the roof and ceiling is minimised and the thermal efficiency of your suspended floors and exterior cavity walls maximised.

Austral Insulation Austral Insulation is a premier supplier and installer of various types of insulation and roof insulation in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. As a specialist in thermal and acoustic insulation, Austral provides quality and innovative solutions to make living environments comfortable, safe, and energy efficient. Austral Insulation understands that every household is different and every family has unique needs, and works closely with Chelbrooke Homes to customise the insulation needs for each client.

Keep noise in its place within your home Sometimes the worst noise comes from within. Home theatres, excited teenagers and even ensuites can produce noise you would rather not hear around your home. Installing SoundScreen in interior walls can greatly reduce the transmission of noise between rooms allowing you to get the peace and quiet you deserve without cramping the rest of the family’s style. All wall systems including SoundScreen can absorb as much as 75% of the sound power to effectively reduce noise to acceptable levels. SoundScreen is available in thicknesses to suit 70mm to 90mm timber stud sizes. The diagram above shows the reductions that can be achieved using SoundScreen in a 90mm stud wall.

Welcome to your

NEW HOME

Make it your style inside and out Drive into your street and there it is, sitting perfectly on its landscaped block, exterior colours in harmony with the surroundings, subtle exterior touches and finishes that portray your individuality. They say you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Well you have certainly ticked that box and any potential future owner would be more than impressed.

Start with a theme Have a theme in mind: We currently classify our themes into three categories.

Coastal Fresh

Urban Organic

Modern Sophisticated

Professional advise is part of our package Choosing colours and finishes and getting the package right can be a challenge, but we at Chelbrooke Homes strive to make the whole process easy. Just follow these simple suggestions, then bring your notes to your first work meeting with our interior decorator who will help you complete your schedule of colours and finishes right down to the window covering. Our display homes are a tangible example of this and are a perfect place to start. Choose a theme that harmonises with your urban, suburban or acreage style location. Or if you prefer, choose one that identifies strongly with your taste and lifestyle. With the theme/style now in mind, the next step is to prioritise your colours in the following order.

16

Bright Ideas


On the outside:

On the inside:

1. House Exterior: Usually the biggest visible area, so remember dark colours make objects look smaller, lighter colours the opposite. If you have a rendered exterior your colour palette is virtually limitless. Start with one of the following colour categories in mind:White/Brown/Charcoal. Then work through the variations or shades of that colour, i.e. White - variations through to cream Brown - variations through to taup Charcoal - variations through to grey A Taubmans/Bristol Paint chart is a great help here.

1. Interior Floor Tiles: The dominant visual area, your floor will set the colour direction for all your inside dressing. Part of our support is to arrange an appointment at the National Tiles Selection Centre. Here a specialist tile consultant will help you with sizes, colours and finishes.

2. Roof: Again a dominant visual area and one that should be in shades of your chosen wall colour, preferably lighter for Queensland weather as the heat reflection will lower your power bill.

2. Kitchen: The hub, the focal point and usually the dominant style item after the floor. Start at eye level with your kitchen cabinets. Minimalistic, or off-white tones for the URBAN theme, try two tone for the COASTAL FRESH and play with textures for the MODERN SOPHISTICATED. Keep the look clean, lose the handles and go for finger pull cabinets. Splash-backs now offer a choice of glass tiles, or a kaleidoscope of colours in the new metaline range. If it’s colour in the kitchen you’re looking for, try matching the face of your under-island bench unit with your splash back.

3. Roof Trim: Match the roof colour or select a shade variation to highlight the roofline from the wall. The choice is yours. Today’s spouting comes with a low maintenance metal fascia to match all roof colours. Again refer to your colour chart book.

3. Kitchen/Island Bench: Follow your theme: remember dark colours give a smaller size perception. Composite stone tops are our preferred choice although the new laminex range offers an exciting variety of colours and a more affordable alternative.

4. Driveways and Paths: Usually overlooked in the selection process. These areas can add substantially to the external wow factor. Concrete pavers that look like timber, sandstone for that more luxurious look, or simple pavers that will age in time to give you a more rustic look. Our displays offer great examples.

Rule of thumb - keep the top colour complementary with the cabinets then use a different colour or texture for the underbench area that faces the dining/living. It will pay to check your design to make sure your main bench has provision for stool seating or even an under-bench cupboard. These in themselves create a great look while at the same time being extremely functional. If it’s the waterfall end look you want, don’t hesitate in choosing a narrow gauge 20mm width composite stone. It’s a slimmer sleek look and it will also help the budget. 4. Interior Walls: Give thought to your floors and furnishings. If choosing a shade of white, be careful with cream as they tend to give a yellow reflection to your furnishings. 5. Master Bedroom: This is your retreat: it’s a room that requires a special touch. Use muted colours to soften, hang pendant lights over bedside tables. When it comes to the master ensuite, step outside the square. Try feature tiled walls rather than traditional friezes, maximise bench top space by adding power points in a drawer for a hair dryer and leave provision for two basins. Make your mirror a framed feature and create luxury and the perception of space by extending your wall tiles to the ceiling.

Make a statement with

STAIRS

For over 94 years Slattery & Acquroff have continually striven to move faster and be bolder, to push the boundaries and break absolutes from the past. With state-of-the-art CNC cutting technology, 3D modelling, integrated quality control systems and CAD design capabilities, no project is too complex for Slattery & Acquroff. Employing only the best and brightest design, manufacturing, fabrication and installation professionals, all stairs built for Chelbrooke Homes are well thought out and executed with the care your new staircase deserves.

Selecting Your Stairs Stairs can make an architectural statement, a point of visual difference or set the style for an interior theme. The following is how we categorise styles:

Modern Associated with clean lines with bright and illustrious features. Modern colour schemes generally lean towards naturals or neutrals.

Contemporary

Curved Curved stairs can be made from a variety of materials and can create a hugely impressive structure in any home. We believe that a beautifully created and functional curved staircase is the embodiment of modern architecture. A curved staircase can dominate an entrance foyer or form a home’s internal back drop.

Spiral

Created with regard to architecture, continually pushing the boundaries away from the norm and characterised by a stark boldness.

The major difference between curved and spiral staircases is the internal beam which all spiral staircases are constructed around. This beam is not required in the construction of curved staircases as these are more freestanding creations.

Traditional

Feature

Created in a period style to compliment a specific era. They are generally designed to respect the origins of a particular time and blend with the history of the home.

“Wow…” that is the reaction you’re looking for when you install a feature staircase in your home. The staircase is a major focal point in your home and in many instances a work of architectural art in its own right. Feature staircases are a Slattery & Acquroff specialty, one which we have honed over our 94 years of stair building.

Classic Classic stairs can be similar to traditional stairs but are not designed to evoke a specific era but are conceptualised in a more timeless manner. Classic stairs can be situated in a modern or period home and can cross the divides of both styles. 20

Clients for life Perfect acreage plan “Our son built his new home with Chelbrooke Homes and spoke highly of them. So when we subdivided our acreage property in Tallebudgera Valley, their display home was the first we visited. Right from the start we were impressed with the fact that we were speaking to a design consultant, rather than a salesperson. Once we had given him our wish list and a few details of the block, he produced their Trevi plan which proved a good starting point. By pushing walls out for a bigger ensuite, adding extra garage space and a media room – we had what we wanted both in design and building cost. Bev had an idea of the base colours, but needed help co-ordinating finishes. With the help of Sue (client liaison), their colour consultant and supplier selection studios, this was done in no time at all. Building commenced and ran on time and to budget. Would we build a Chelbrooke Home again? Without a doubt.”

Gordon & Bev Lean A special design for a sloping block We purchased a beautiful, elevated sloping block surrounded by natural bush with glimpses of the “coast”. To us it was the perfect block, but on the other hand we knew it would require a special design. We had plans drawn up by another builder but they really didn’t maximise the living space or capture the right aspect of the block. The Chelbrooke display home was just up the road so we called in and spoke to the design consultant. It was refreshing. He was extremely professional, understood what we were trying to achieve and pointed out the shortcomings in the existing plan. The old plans were scrapped and we started from scratch again. With minimal changes we were into contract and ready to build. We couldn’t believe the difference in empathy and service. Lee already had a colour palette in mind and with a couple of visits to Chelbrooke’s selection studios, it was all done. The building process was exciting and our supervisor was in constant contact throughout and our home was delivered on time and on budget. The end result speaks for itself. Our home won the Master Builders 2012 award for the best sloping site. We are now planning to sell and build again, with Chelbrooke Homes of course.

The heart and soul

OF YOUR NEW HOME

Today, people want a kitchen that incorporates both a workspace and a casual space for dining. They are looking for more than just cooking - they want a family hub, a social centre for guests, a place where memories are made and at the same time to make a style statement. Functionality therefore plays a critical part in the overall design. Peruse our plans and visit our displays and you will see we have recognised the importance of ergonomic efficiency. Your reach from preparation bench to fridge is minimised, large preparation benches with plenty of space either side of the cook top and in some of our new plans we have included a butler’s pantry.

Butler’s pantry Perfect for the gourmet entertainer, this discrete space provides valuable additional storage and preparation area. The entrees, the dessert to come and the used dishes from the previous courses: all hidden from view leaving the main kitchen bench clean for serving, socialising and entertaining. In today’s new home design, a butler’s pantry is a must as it offers not only practical value but a valuable resale feature as well. 34

Your quality kitchen comes with our Signature

State-of-the-art appliances come as standard Australian made Omega ovens and ceramic cook tops and range hoods are offered in the Bella specification or if you wish to step up to German technology our Blanco state-ofthe-art black glass cook tops, range hood and stainless steel oven are included in the Director specification.

Bench tops - Caesar or Laminated Laminated bench tops are no longer the poor cousin. New materials, new colours, simulated wood grains and stone along with curved form technology now rival their big brother reconstituted stone for look, maintenance and certainly affordability. It is quite common to mix and match to meet budgets yet retain that quality look. Stone in the kitchen and laminate in the butler’s pantry is a sensible compromise, however if it’s a statement you want Caesar Stone takes a lot of beating.

When it comes to the perfect kitchen you need good, functional design and a manufacturer with experience and teamwork who can provide a total package. Chelbrooke Homes has worked with Signature Joinery for over 12 years and has developed and produced hundreds of standout kitchens. State-of-the-art manufacturing with the care of a craftsman: Each piece of Signature Joinery is made one at a time to exact specifications, using advanced computerised construction technology, along with the expert skills of experienced crafts people to produce custom made cabinetry with superior strength and stability.

Everything from bathrooms to

THE KITCHEN SINK

Our range Pipes and fittings | Clips and pipe supports Valves | Pumps | Bathroom tapware Basins and sinks | Toilets and vanities Hot water units And much more! If you can’t see it, just ask one of our expert staff and if we can get it, we’ll order it in for you.

Established in 1986 in Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast, foundation Manager Mike Onn has seen this fledgling business grow into a highly specialised company employing experienced staff that now work out of two showrooms at both ends of the Gold Coast: Labrador and Burleigh Heads. “What was a simple choice for new home builders some 19 years ago is now much more complicated,” says Mike. Bathrooms and kitchens are as much a fashion statement as what you wear. We can thank shows like “The Block” for introducing new trends - who would have thought black taps and shower fittings would be the new “in”. And of course these are now featured in our showroom displays. Choice of colours, finishes and styles are virtually unlimited and to some the options can be overwhelming. That’s why we invested in showrooms of virtual displays that allow the new home builder to experience products in situ and in style, while at the same time viewing the range. It is just not the same as looking at it on the net. People like to touch, see and experience first-hand.

Splish Splash - look for the stamp of Australian quality Freestanding baths are certainly the wow factor in today’s modern bathroom with shapes and sizes to suit just about any space. In weighing up price versus quality, you need to consider the following: to maintain that high gloss, colour-fastness, chemical scratch and crack resistance you need to make sure the product is made from the highest quality Sanitary-Grade Lucite Acrylic. Fortunately most Australian-made baths are manufactured from this material as opposed to the lower quality imports that are on the local market.

We can customise your Chelbrooke Choice Chelbrooke display homes offer an excellent choice and examples of our range. But just like selecting your tiles or carpet, you may wish to look at an alternative. Your Chelbrooke Homes design consultant can arrange a personal viewing in our showroom and with you plans in hand, our experienced staff can assist in finding the right product, colour and style at the right price.

That’s why we have made a strong commitment to display our products in the Chelbrooke display homes. Our partnership with Chelbrooke Homes is invaluable as we get professional feedback on all our products, from pipes to the kitchen sink.

Our showrooms are open: Monday to Friday 8am to 4pm Saturday 8am - 12 noon 36

The experts in the trade FOR FLOORING

Exclusive use of our professional selection centre Queensland born and bred in 1975 from a small showroom in Brisbane’s Annerley, Carpet Call - known as “the experts in the trade” - has grown to Australia’s largest 100% Australian owned carpet retailer. Chelbrooke Homes has formed a win win association with Carpet Call by using all its flooring products throughout their display homes. “Carpet Call has built its business on customer service 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and all major cities have warehousing facilities, making the selection range and the delivery unbeatable,” says Peter Riewoldt, Chelbrooke Homes Managing Director. Carpet Call prides itself on its in-house colour consultants and our colour consultants work with them to provide samples and recommendations for all our clients’ flooring needs. Our motto is the same as theirs, “strive to make the process as simple as possible”.

Laminate Floating Floors by Parador (German Made) Laminate flooring offers that real timber look at a cheaper price. All of our laminates are constructed of HDF (high density fibre board) and come with swelling protection. Laminate flooring has the advantages of being scratch resistant and easy to maintain. Great for a growing family or just someone who has a busy lifestyle. There are two main styles just as in our timber range: the wide board look that would suit more open plan spaces and the traditional parquetry (3 strips) look for smaller or traditional areas.

But remember the golden rule of carpet selection: due to lighting it always looks different in the store than on the floor at home. That’s why the display home is the perfect venue to ponder your choice

There are over 25 different designs and colours to choose from in a range of qualities and styles to suit everybody’s budget.

.

Vinyl Flooring

Timber, carpet or laminate? Today’s flooring offers a plethora of choices in colour and styles to suit all foot traffic areas. Floating timber floors now compete with ceramic tiles for ambience and durability and gone are the days of “lino”.

Another popular alternative to timber is vinyl flooring, which comes in a number of modern styles. One of the major benefits of this product is its stain-resistant protective coating, which keeps maintenance to a minimum.

It is now difficult to distinguish between timber and laminate with new trendy patterns.

Texline Textile is a revolutionary textile backed flooring surface that combines the warmth, comfort and quiet of carpet with the practical, hardwearing benefits of vinyl. It is truly unique.

Timber floors

Available in a wide range of contemporary colours and designs, Texline is the ideal solution for any room in the home.

Hard Floating Floors Engineered Timber Floating Floors are a quick and easy flooring solution that can be laid directly over any clean, level, flat surface much faster than traditional hardwood flooring. Ready to use immediately after installation, these floating floors are an easy choice designed for today’s fast paced lifestyle. The 3 ply cross linked construction of all Universal floors makes them exceptionally stable, and backed by a lifetime manufacturing guarantee.

National TILES Inspirational, stylish and functional tiles can make a quality statement in your home.

Exclusive use of our professional selection centre Only open to our builder’s clients, here you can meet with our trained consultants and/or with your Chelbrooke Homes colour stylist. Full colour schemes that include walls, flooring and feature tiles can be laid out. Matched to your décor styling, combinations tried, even computer generated room areas can be coloured and simulated - it makes the whole process easy and exciting.

Over 35 Years Experience Established in 1979 by Frank Walker and now under the guidance of his son and CEO Nick Walker, National Tiles has grown to become a market leader in tiles and stone flooring. From nationwide retail stores, purpose built professional tile selection centres and supported by world class suppliers, National Tiles has the most technically advanced builder and client selection process in Australia.

Choose your tiles to suit your style and home area Ceramic tiles on walls and on the floor. Ceramic tiles are clay-based, pressed at a lower pressure rate and fired at a lower temperature than porcelain. They are finished with a durable gloss or matt glaze that carries the colour and pattern to give you a fresh clean look in any space. Ceramic tiles deliver excellent value for money - they are easier to cut than porcelain tiles and are a popular choice for those who want a cost-effective solution without compromising on style. Once laid, ceramic tiles are easy to maintain and clean.

Porcelain tiles ideal for wherever there’s water. Being denser than ceramic and much less porous than other tiles, they are perfect for humid and wet areas like bathrooms, terraces or kitchens. They are also a great choice in cooler climates and generally porcelain tiles will work in any space throughout the home. Porcelain tiles are also durable and will look fantastic even when exposed to light commercial traffic.

Porcelain tiles are made using very fine, high quality materials with high silica content, pressed at high pressure and then fired at high temperatures. Choose your style and texture - glazed or unglazed, with gloss, matt or textured finishes. In most cases National Tiles offers all finishes for every porcelain tile range. The unglazed porcelain range also comes with further options: polished, full bodied or double loaded.

Natural stone for a striking organic look. Extracted from the earth with its rich natural appearance with small imperfections preserved to create that unique organic look, these tiles make a statement both inside and out. Being natural, each piece’s colour, texture and pattern is truly random. National Tiles’ natural stone range includes travertine, bluestone, marble and granite pavers. While natural stone does require care, having a simple maintenance routine in place will keep it looking beautiful for many years. As a rule National Tiles recommends that all natural stone should be sealed to keep the authentic look.

Feature tiles - mosaic, border and decorative. An exciting range that is constantly growing due to international fashion and styling trends. Use these tiles to highlight areas with splashes of colour. Express your style, be bold or subtle - there is a dazzling array to choose from. 38

The experts in

HOME CINEMA

There is nothing like a BIG screen with BIG sound to bring your favourite movies and sport to life. Quality Home Cinema is a great investment for the family and adds significant value to your home. The Big Picture People are the experts in Home Cinema, Multi-room Audio and Automation Systems. Big Picture People are the chosen partner to supply Chelbrooke Homes with all Home Cinema and integrated systems. The Chelbrooke design team involve The Big Picture People in the design process from the start to ensure that room size, configuration and even the décor is correct to maximize the effect of your chosen system.

Projection versus big screen LED Today’s large LED panels rival projector systems in size but not in value. An LED of comparable size can cost more than an entire Real Home Cinema package, including speakers, Blu-ray and installation. For that real cinema feel there is still nothing like a projection screen to immerse you into the ambiance. Be it movies, BIG screen sport, concerts or even gaming, they all make you feel front and centre in a gold class seat. You don’t miss out on technology either; our state of the art cinemas include 3D capability and can connect seamlessly with your WIFI. This turns your screen into a smart screen for accessing the internet and all the exciting new online entertainment services like Netflix. Room size and design is important and is something that needs to be planned early. Chelbrooke Homes specialize in designing media rooms to suit personal wants and needs. Ceiling height, wall color and lighting can be tailored to each individual home. 42

What is 4K New ultra high definition technology, nicknamed 4K, means higher resolution with 4 times as many pixels and sharper images. 4K also delivers more accurate colour and smoother movement. These factors are especially obvious on any image above 55 inch. Most of our screens average at 110 inches and can be larger if the room is sufficient. 4K is here now, with hundreds of movies and TV series recorded in 4K and delivered either on streaming services or Blu-Ray. Even TV and Foxtel looks MUCH better on a 4K screen.

Great sounds all around the house An important part of a REAL CINEMA is selecting the right speaker system to suit your needs. If its BIG SOUND you want with your BIG SCREEN, we have the right surround sound systems for you. But if you prefer a more discreet look, our architectual range of speakers will stlll give you great sound but the look is minimal. Your audio plan doesn’t have to stop in the media room; WIFI capabilities now offer sound possibilities all around the home. Speaker systems can run throughout the house, without the need of additional components taking up space in other rooms. Everything can be controlled via an App on your smartphone or tablet. And don’t forget the outside cables for speakers in the alfresco ceiling, great for entertaining. Or even consider rock speakers for the garden, getting sound into large yards or by the pool.

A sound investment There is nothing like enjoying your new Home Cinema, immersed in surround sound, however the family seeking quiet in adjacent rooms may not share your enthusiasm. At Chelbrooke Homes we recommend using the right acoustic insulation to keep the great sounds in and the outside sounds out. Austral Insulation have taken sound insulation to a new level with their new generation sound barrier. Denser than your traditional internal wall insulation, yet installed the same way, Sound Screen Denser offers the complete acoustic insulation solution to your home cinema. You may also be interested to check out the NEW starlight ceilings on offer; On display now at the BPP showroom. This product will improve internal acoustics as well as produce a perfect light ambience for your room.

A comfortable room size for a projection system is 4.5 x 4 metres.

2.

To get the best out of your picture make the screen wall the darkest wall in the room. A drape or heavy curtain on a side wall will also improve the ambience as well as the sound.

3.

A carpeted floor as opposed to tiles will enhance sound quality.

Be sure to have you Sound and Visions cables organised well in advance. Bring your plans into our showroom before building.

ALFRESCO

Queensland style

Synonymous with our sub-tropical climate and almost as important as the kitchen, is the Queensland outdoor area. The Hawaiians call it a lanai, the Kiwis a patio and Queenslanders (given the fact that this area is usually bigger than the two others combined), have opted for the term “Alfresco� - a title that sums up perfectly the life and style your covered outdoor entertaining area offers. At Chelbrooke Homes we have turned this area into an art form, creating not only an exciting entertainment space but also an outdoor area that is a valuable asset to your new home. In planning your Alfresco area, you need to balance the wow with design practicality.

Brightideas:

ALFRESCO AREAS

Make the transition from inside to outside as seamless as possible Your kitchen/dining area needs to flow to the outdoor area via large opening glass sliders or bi-folds. Bear in mind, while bi-folds create additional clear open space and provide the wow, they also take up wall space and can be costly to insect screen. If the floor plan allows, include an outdoor server bench accessible via sliding windows.

Create extra ceiling space Take a look at our latest display homes and you’ll see additional ceiling heights in all our Alfresco areas which add visual appeal and airflow encouraged through the installation of ceiling fans. Today’s ceiling fans from Beacon Lighting come in an exciting range of shapes, sizes and styles and provide that additional designer touch.

Future proof

Built in teppanyaki bar adds functionality and style

Do away with the unsightly gas bottle by providing a gas point. Plan power points for a wall-mounted television and bar fridge and plumb for an outdoor sink. All this work is more affordable in the new construction phase rather than having to retro fit.

Sounds good As recommended in our home theatre section, include outdoor speakers, remembering your music and your television access can be driven from your smart phone or tablet. Bright Ideas
