Luxury Painting, a leading name in high-end residential and commercial painting, played a vital role in the delivery of Core Development’s NUE Gungahlin project.
With over 20 years of experience and a reputation for impeccable finishes, the company was responsible for both the internal and external painting across this large-scale residential complex.
“Our scope covered all painting and surface finishes, inside and out,” explained Rick Halsey, Director of Luxury Painting.
“We worked closely with Core Development from the outset to ensure an efficient start that would allow us to deliver the quality we’re known for. Having a large, flexible team meant we could ramp up manpower when needed to stay on track without sacrificing attention to detail.”
The architectural design of NUE Gungahlin introduced several unique challenges, including roll-on texture finishes to the slab edges on each floor. “We used Dulux premium products throughout—something we use across our top-tier projects,” said Rick. “Specialised coatings were applied to textured slab edges to visually break up the levels and create a dynamic aesthetic.”
Working across multiple levels, the team had to adapt their approach depending on access restrictions due to ongoing crane and pump use. “We made sure to return to those areas later and tie them in seamlessly,” Rick noted. “It’s all about timing and flexibility.”
Luxury Painting was also tasked with ensuring that NDIS-compliant and government housing units met regulatory standards while maintaining the same level of finish as all other apartments. “It’s a different build style, but the same expectations,” Rick said.
To protect their work and ensure a display-home standard, Luxury Painting held off on applying final coats until all other trades were finished. “That way, the finish is pristine—and if touch-ups are needed, they’re almost invisible,” Rick added.
