Each manufacturer provides standard brick ranges for Clarendon, with additional options available for upgrades. Once you’ve arrived, a brick colour consultant will take you through a viewing of the bricks on a large scale to get an idea of how they’ll look as the exterior of your home.

The consultants have an in-depth understanding of the types of bricks to suit the home you’re building, with samples available. You must select your brick before your appointment in the Lifestyle Studio. As part of designing the exterior of your home, choose from a selection of standard inclusions or upgradable brick features:

Window Furnishing Style Partners

I’ve been working with Elite Home Improvements for over 5 years and I’m here to help you select all the best window furnishings for your home. From flyscreens, security doors as well as beautiful curtains, shear fabrics sourced from international and local suppliers.  I’m here to guide you through all the indoor and outdoor solutions for your new home.


A handy design idea to consider before your consultation, is that lighter coloured blinds and shutters can help keep your home cooler in summer by deflecting heat as light coloured blinds are less likely to attract the sun’s rays. But I’m here to walk you through all your options, and I love it when customers walk away feeling confident in their decisions with me.

Wardrobe Style Partner

I have worked in the housing industry for over 18 years, and it’s always rewarding when a customer walks out of their consultation with me and they’re happy with their final choice. 

A handy tip is for customers to think about how much hanging space they use for each family member in their current wardrobe, and what they might be missing from their current wardrobe (somewhere to store shoes, or jewellery etc). 

My favourite design style is a ‘Contemporary’ style, which all our wardrobe products can work well with.

Stair Style Partner

For a lot of customers this is a home they plan to live in and grow a family or settle down, so it makes me very proud to be able to assist so many customers with a big feature of their dream home. Genneral Stairs have a great website full of inspiration photos and our complete product catalogue that would be handy to browse before your appointment. It includes videos of James Treble discussing key elements of staircase design which makes understanding stair terminology that little bit easier.

My favourite design style is Coastal Hamptons. Combining crisp white craftsman detailing with natural timber for handrails and treads can really give it a Hamptons feel. I’m looking forward to helping create the best staircase for you and your family’s needs.

Airconditioning Style Partner

For over 15 years, I have been helping families choose the best air-conditioning systems for their new homes. Before your consultation, it is helpful to consider how many zones you might require. Room sizes and layout including ceiling height, natural light and roof type all play a key role in getting the most out of your heating and cooling systems. I’ll also help you choose the right gas fireplace for your home, if you have chosen to include one.

 Modern Contemporary is my design style of choice, and any of our Rinnai Gas Fireplaces compliment that style and can become a real talking point in any living space.

Carpet and Timber Style Partner

The flooring you choose for your new home can have a big impact on your space. In your consultation with me, we’ll talk about timber, carpet, laminate and hybrid options as well as appropriate underlays. 

The most important thing to know ahead of time is what style you want to give your home. Flooring has such a large connection to the home bringing together the kitchen and the stairs, so it’s important to have them flow with the colour palette that you choose. 

I love coastal styles and soft neutral timber tones. Herringbone patterns or wide boards give you a nice contrast between crisp white lines in elements such as wainscotting, giving off summer-holiday vibes.
