ISK Construction / Service

Considered below ground. Connected above.

A basement is part of the whole home. Its relationship to the structure, circulation and spaces above needs to be understood early in the design. ISK’s experience extends from complex basement construction through structural framing, carpentry and the final finishes.

Alfred House / Essendon

An integrated part of the residence

Alfred House in Essendon is a contemporary residence with clean lines, expansive glazing and a fully integrated basement. It provides a concrete example within the ISK portfolio for a conversation about this type of home.

The project page shows the completed architectural spaces and material details. Use those images to explore the character of the residence, while discussing any below-ground scope directly with Ronny and your project consultants.

Coordination from structure to finish

A basement brief brings together several parts of the project, including access, structural design, services and the way people move between levels. Each needs to be coordinated with the home above rather than considered as an isolated addition.

ISK works with architects and consultants to understand these connections and the design intent behind them. Ronny’s personal involvement and the team’s carpentry background carry that attention from the main structure to the smaller junctions and finishes.

Discuss your site and design

The suitability and scope of a basement depend on the individual project. Start by sharing the suburb, architectural drawings and any site information already available. This page does not assume that a basement is suitable for every property.

  • The proposed use of the below-ground space.
  • Drawings showing its connection to the rest of the home.
  • Available site and consultant information.
  • The current stage of the design and the questions you want to resolve.
