We are now looking for builders and have gone through many many many display homes and at points got close to sealing deals with a few. We really loved what we saw at Botanic Homes, Burbank and Homebuyer Centre but have stumbled onto a new builder called 'Mode' which seems to be a new arm of Romeo Homes but fully focused on modern and innovative design. What caught my attention was the fact that they use a Bondor ceiling that elevates the roof to around 3.8 meters one way and 2.5ish the other. Has anyone used a Bondor ceiling for their home? and is anyone building with Mode or can provide advice on builders? Extensive reading has really got me going in a circle with everything.
