Cronulla duplex — film & completed shoot

The brief

A film and completed-works shoot across Figure 8 Construction's Cronulla duplex — curved rendered facades, battened timber garage doors, herringbone oak floors, a stone island kitchen and a floating oak stair, captured on handover in daylight and again at dusk.

The facade curves, so the exteriors are shot on-axis first, then wide, so the geometry reads instead of leaning.

Interiors are framed down the herringbone and through to the courtyard to hold depth in a duplex footprint.

The dusk set exists for one reason: the facade and driveway lighting is part of the build, and it only shows after dark.
