Canal-Front Home Renovations
Runaway Bay's canal network is one of the Gold Coast's best-kept secrets for family living. Many of these waterfront homes were built in the 1980s and 90s with layouts that turn their backs on the water. We redesign these homes to embrace their canal frontage - opening up rear living areas, installing bi-fold doors, and creating alfresco spaces where you can watch the boats go by while entertaining friends and family.

- Indoor-outdoor entertaining connections
