I’ve been in the building industry for 2 years now and have worked with all profiles of clients from first home buyers to high end full custom multi-storey designs. Prior to this industry, I am from an architecture background, where I have developed the skills to visualise, sketch, model and render. These skills have been useful in suggesting ideas and help the clients picture the spaces in their new home.

Fun facts: I moved to Australia from China when I was 9 years old. I can speak Mandarin, which I still use to communicate with my parents.

Favourite New Gen Design: Hercules is my favourite design! I’ve always preferred bigger and purposeful rooms over additional rooms and Hercules is the perfect example of that. Every minor bedrooms contains its own IT nook and walk in robe, perfect for the kids to grown into. The massive alfresco is great for entertaining guests and the efficient design means that it’s one of our best value floorplans! The Hercules is a versatile floorplan that you can easily add a scullery or games room if needed.

Top Building Tip: Put aside a budget for internal cladding, this will take your house to the next level. Internal cladding can dramatically change the aesthetic and mood of the space but overdoing it can feel too busy and make a space feel small. Remember, plain white walls are never featured in interior magazines!

Fun fact: If Gaurav is not spending time with his Woofie (French bulldog), you can find him hiking, kayaking and travelling.

Favourite design: The Mackenzie has a flow that works for the entire family, having a working-from-home space is a must in today’s society, and the curve wall is a design feature that connects the spaces seamlessly.

Building tip: When building, ensure you have a good relationship with your building partner & make sure the house design is right for you and your family’s needs. Gaurav can help to guide you through the process to deliver value for money, great service, quality designs, and transparent time frames.
