change is very slight on each section the overall
effect is of a curve, not a series of straight lines.”
To address this issue and other complexities
of the design, Ellison’s Aluminium selected the
Fairview Architectural range for its flexibility.
“A big advantage of Fairview Architectural
is that the different product suites within the
range are designed to work together. Most areas
had their challenges and being able to combine
different suites made the project achievable.”
As well as the curved ceiling, Ellison’s Alu-
minium had to work with the interior’s negative
detailing which needed super-accurate joinery
for a consistent look. Strong and true, Fairview
Architectural delivered the precision fit required.

run right across the front of the home.
The company used elements from
Fairview’s extensive Architectural
range to address different aspects of
the design, such as where the upper
windows marry to the sliding doors.
Carrying the wooden ceilings out
beyond the glazing as soffits added
to the illusion that the roof is free of
the base of the home – like a sail.
