Karinya Constructions Pty Ltd

Have you ever been inside a home that really feels like another world? There’s a sense of calm that can be felt. The air feels fresh. Visually, everything looks like it belongs together. The materials meld into each other. There’s no tension between materiality (what the building is made from), and nature (where the building sits). The home has a presence of peace. Peace can be felt through the home. There’s a fascinating cross roads of various elements of a building that work collaboratively together, expressing their unique identities, creating that peace. Think about air flow, sun filled rooms, natural and honest materials, thought-provoking layout, internal temperature, luscious greenery and detailed design. If just one of these elements is missing, or these are not properly mastered, the building is a failure. It has often been said that there is a strange dichotomy between an architect and a builder. The two come from polar opposite realms in the building world. The relationship is misunderstood, because there’s a misunderstanding of community. It’s not one member or opposing sides, but a community of craftspeople; from the client who has the initial vision, to the architect who designs and details the building, through to the builder who brings it to life with their team, including skilled stone masons, bricklayers, electricians, plumbers, cabinet makers. Peace leads to happiness. The two are inseparable. A peaceful process from the start through to completion, leads to happiness within the community. The name Karinya is derived from a Wiradjuri word meaning peaceful and happy home. This reflects our desire to create homes that are remarkable and true to their essence, whilst maintaining a harmonious working relationship with all involved, culminating in a peaceful and enjoyable process and home for the client. In the spirit of reconciliation, Karinya acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. We recognise and admire this special connection to land and the true desire to look after it all costs, not exploiting it for its resources. This has motivated Karinya to reflect that stewardship in all aspects of the construction process through to project completion. View us on Instagram: karinya_constructions
