Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Australia, the magazine that highlights the best in building and building products across the country. For this edition, we have shown our spotlight on Walkom Constructions – a multi-award-winning based in Newcastle, New South Wales, specialising in high-end and heritage renovations and extensions. Their goal is to build clients “amazing homes that they never want to leave.” We spoke to founder and owner Chris Walkom about what goes into achieving that goal. We also talked about how their company has embraced technology, how they have stayed at the cutting edge of energy efficiency, and about how everything they do “centres around creating a better building system.” Also featured in this issue is Destination Living. They are a Melbourne-based builder of forever homes, founded almost 15 years ago by Mike Costa and Grace Patane. They are another company dedicated to staying up-todate, and they are equally passionate about learning new things and finding better ways to design and build. We talked to Mike about that passion and how it led to the creation of Destination Living in the first place. We also discussed how they are utilizing virtual reality and augmented reality technology in their design process, and the enthusiastic response that technology they have received form clients for it. For those stories – and many more like them, about other award-winners, technological innovators, and building industry leaders – just keep reading. All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader,
