Gold Coast Apartment Renovation

Remodelling small space living into a functional and comfortable luxury apartment in Surfers Paradise

Project Overview

Situated on the beautiful Gold Coast, this apartment renovation presented an exciting opportunity to transform a dated residence into a modern and inviting space. We aimed to enhance both functionality and aesthetics while conforming to strata renovation rules.

Textured ceilings update

  • Removed dated textured ceilings without disrupting the plasterboard.
  • Skimcoated the ceiling to make it look 100% flat like plaster enhancing the interior’s appearance and reflecting more light.

Windows replacement

  • The original windows had a concrete hob taking up significant floor space. We replaced the windows and built a sleeker concrete hob underneath, optimising space and aesthetics.
  • A temporary balcony barrier was installed to ensure safety and compliance throughout the renovation process.

Upgraded amenities

  • Redesigned and upgraded the kitchen area, maximising countertop functionality with modern cabinets and appliances.
  • Renovated two bathrooms and the laundry room, creating functional and spacious areas. The addition of copper-coloured fixtures added a fine touch to these essential spaces.

Aesthetic remodelling

  • Collaborated with a designer to enhance the newly renovated spaces. The designer suggested installing a ceiling box across rooms, which helpfully concealed functional elements and elevated the apartment’s overall design.
  • We crafted a bulkhead with “lip” to accommodate an LED strip light around the perimeter, transforming the rooms into cosier and brighter spaces.
Raw Built Construction transformed an outdated apartment into a sleek, functional living space that went beyond the client’s vision. The project highlighted the team’s expertise in maximising space and adhering to strata regulations. Collaborating with a designer resulted in a modern, welcoming home.
