Pichelmann News

After winning its category at the master builders regional awards in June, we were thrilled to receive a national award nomination for our renovation project in Hawker. This years national awards were held at the stunning Field of Lights in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Tom and Eugene attended, with Parry and Meike inconveniently galivanting around New Zealand at the time, giving the younger leaders of Pichelmann a chance rub shoulders with industry big-wigs from around the country. Unfortunately, taking home an award was not to be, but the whole team was very proud to have been nominated regardless, with Tom particularly delighted to have seen one of his first projects gain so much well deserved recognition.

 

Master builder Awards

This years awards saw us have three projects nominated for the hotly contested Master Builders association industry awards for the Canberra region. 

  • Garran residence – custom built home $1m - $2m
  • Reid Residence – heritage renovation
  • Hawker residence – renovation $450k - $1m

With an exceptionally high quality group of entrants, we were verry proud to have taken home an award with the Hawker residence winning its category and also winning a national award nomination!

The awards night its self was a fantastic night enjoyed by a great number of the Pichelmann team along with all the other people in our industry whom we love to work alongside.

 

Another award for Pichelmann Custom Building! This week we won the HIA National Award for Special Purpose Housing.

We are very proud of this award - this luxury home was built for a client with a degenerative condition. The home was completely customised to the client's brief whilst allowing flexibility for the future. Styled with Japanese themes and achieving an 8.7 star energy efficiency rating, the home features an exercise pool in one wing and the adaptability for the other wing to operate independently as a residence for a live-in carer.

We were recently featured on Channel Nine’s Open Homes Australia showcasing one of our projects at Wamboin. We’re very proud of this one and if you missed us on the small screen, you can watch the segment here.

The Pichelmann team recently attended the Master Builders National awards in Hobart last weekend.

Pichelmann was nominated in 2 categories.

  • Luxury alterations / Additions in excess of $1million
  • Environment and energy efficiency building award

The team were pleased to take home the National environment and energy efficient building award, for their Palmer project in Campbell.
