Project Profile: Palm Springs Retreat

New South Wales

Product: 75 x 75 DecoBattens

Colour: DecoWood Natural Snow Gum

Designed by Oak & Orange, this Palm Springs Retreat exudes a cool coastal vibe with mid-century modern design.

Renowned for its mixture of contemporary style with an old-school feel, Palm Springs-style is the popular design trend incorporating coastal living with a hint of glamour. Being mothers, low maintenance and easy living is at the forefront of good design for designers Heather and Sarah from Oak & Orange. So, when it came to their new Palm Springs Retreat project set on 25 acres in New South Wales, the facade had to incorporate highly durable products that complemented its mid-century modern design.

Horizontal lines and timber accents are key design elements for any palm springs inspired home. The clean lines of the timber-look aluminium battens used on the façade create a modern design statement that accentuates the homes ethos. Finished in natural Snow Gum from the Australian Native range by DecoWood, these battens created a relaxed atmosphere of warmth and elegance. To order a sample of DecoBatten, please click here.

DecoWood's Qualicoat Class 2 marine grade and UV resistant powder coating make it an ideal finishing for external façade applications, and the low-maintenance nature of the product means it is perfect for busy families or households that are always on the go.

In addition to this, DecoBatten is 100% solid aluminium and certified non-combustible, making it bushfire safe and the ideal timber alternative for those living on acres of bushy land.
