CLASSIC DESIGNS
'Classic Designs' is a unique Strongbuild brand that features a streamlined method of designing and constructing quality classic country homes, cottages and environments without compromise. Strongbuild 'Classic Designs' incorporates traditional joinery and construction techniques combined with modern technology to create buildings that are generally considered too difficult, time consuming and too costly to build by the modern building industry. With Strongbuild 'Classic Designs' you can choose from an existing Strongbuild design, modify an existing Strongbuild design or start from scratch and create an entirely unique design of your own, with or without the help of an architect. Strongbuild offers a full 'in house' drafting service using a state of the art 3D modelling program that provides 3D images and floorplans of your design. It is also linked to a database system that provides an accurate costing of raw materials and so on. Ultimately it is possible to accurately estimate the final cost of labour and materials and to create an accurate building schedule. The system provides efficiency which ultimately translates into quality and value for money.

SPECIAL PROJECTS
As flexible and unique as the Strongbuild 'Classic Designs' system is, there are times when a client has a design that incorporates a different stylistic approach. Strongbuild is happy to work with like minded architects and designers and are always interested in tackling well designed, adventurous projects that suit the Strongbuild building style. It is often possible to incorporate the benefits of the 'Classic Designs' building system into a 'Special Project' build. If you have an idea you'd like to explore, please contact us to discuss.

The machines are digitally calibrated providing extreme efficiency and accuracy. Set up times are cut to a minimum and quality of joinery is excellent.

The entire catalogue of items available in the 'Classic Designs' range is created in the workshop and each individual piece linked to Strongbuild's Classic Designs 3D modelling program database.

The property under construction is being built by Strongbuild on Spec. and is available for sale. For more info contact Strongbuild.
THE PARTNERS
Strongbuild is privately owned by business partners Chris Francis and Jamie Strong. Chris and Jamie moved their respective families from Sydney to Berry in 2000 in search of a better lifestyle. Their combined passion for country living and classic country architecture inspired the design and construction of their own homes and has since developed into the 'Classic Designs business they feature today. Both partners are sensitive to the environment and proud of the potential long term effect their attitude to traditional country architecture will have on the landscape of the future. The lifestyles they have created for themselves is perfectly translated into their 'Classic Designs' brand.
