Property of the week - Menzies

Archived article. People, relative dates, sale status and availability below belong to the original story; this is not a current property listing or offer.

A secluded beachside masterpiece that redefines family luxury on an epic scale.

Designed by Finnis Architects, this residence balances strong exterior form with seamlessly integrated interiors that promote shared spaces coming together in spectacular fashion.

The seemingly simple, geometric exterior form balances with the minimalistic, open interiors, natural materials, and repetitive architectural elements that carry throughout the home from indoors to out.

The double height void over the dining area enables light to penetrate through the heart of the home. This void is also a central location for transition and connection to the first-floor bedrooms. With bluestone being a dominant material, it was crucial that the interior material and colour palette would soften and complement the exterior, with lighter timber finishes seen on the stair balustrade and ceiling battens.

Photographer – Mat Moore

Photographer

The article credits Mat Moore, who appears on the Urban Artists roster as a Photographer with a published artist profile describing 20 years of residential photography, particularly high-end architectural homes and pools, and identifying him as a licensed drone pilot.

These are the artist profile’s experience and licence statements; contact our studio about current credentials and availability. Our published FAQ states that a specific photographer cannot be directly reserved; a preferred name goes on the order notes as a request.

Planning a new shoot

Our photography service describes planning around a property's features, audience and campaign, with shooting standards, colour profiles and editing processes used for consistency. Discuss the required images and other services when booking.

Our Help and FAQs lists standard retouching such as removing flash and tripod reflections, reducing window glare, adding window detail, removing appliance stickers and carpet indentations, making pool and ocean water blue, removing pool cleaners and debris, and greening or repairing existing grass and vegetation. Fire inserts must be specified; obvious cords and fixed hoses need their locations identified. External bins are removed where they could not be moved on site. Blanking or blurring agent signboards is standard; full removal is additional retouching.

Requests to remove permanent external features require written acceptance of responsibility for the specific change because they can misrepresent the property. Ask us to review the edit and its intended use; written acceptance alone does not make every alteration appropriate.

Who designed Menzies?

The article credits Finnis Architects.

What role does the dining void play?

The double-height void brings light into the heart of the home and connects the shared spaces with first-floor bedrooms.

How are the strong exterior materials balanced inside?

Lighter timber on the stair balustrade and ceiling battens softens the dominant bluestone. Mat Moore is credited for photography.

When are the finished files delivered?

On our current published terms, photography files are available by close of business on the business day after the shoot. With proofing, the clock starts when selections are submitted, and selections after 5 pm count as the next business day.

Can delivery be brought forward?

Express delivery before midday on the next business day is available for an additional charge. It must be requested at the time of order and at least 48 hours before the booking, and it is not available on video.

How do I request a change to an image?

Image selections and markup pins go through DREAM. Place the pin on the part of the image that needs attention and add a clear comment, which reaches the team member scheduled to retouch it.

How long are the delivered files kept?

Final assets are kept for about 90 days and then removed, so download and store them in your own system. That is approximate published guidance rather than a contractual retention period.

How much notice do you need for property access?

Access details are needed 24 hours in advance. A contact name and phone number helps our field crew resolve problems such as finding the property or coordinating arrival.

What does standard retouching include?

Our published list covers removing flash and tripod reflections, reducing window glare and adding window detail, removing appliance stickers and carpet indentations, making pools and ocean blue, removing pool cleaners and debris, greening or repairing existing vegetation, and adding a fire where specified. Cords and fixed hoses need their locations identified.

How do I start a project with you?

Share the property or development address, the services you need, the campaign channels, any access constraints and your preferred delivery date. We will confirm scope, availability and price on a current quote before anything is booked.
