Canadian Bay: an architectural gem by the sea

From Belgium to Australia, Rubio Monocoat is everywhere. The picturesque Canadian Bay in Australia’s Mount Eliza is a beautiful place to live. What makes living there even more beautiful, is a solid protection of your wood with Rubio Monocoat oils.

Coastal views with a strong Rubio Monocoat protection

The impressive exterior design of this beautiful seaside villa immediately catches the eye, while at the same time it blends in very well with the landscape. To integrate the amazing coastal views into the villa, they worked with a lot of windows and several terraces. This makes the house ideal to enjoy the outdoor life to the fullest. 

To stay in tune with the outdoors both inside and outside, the natural touch was integrated in the house by using a lot of wood. French Oak was used for the interior and Blackbutt Wood and Charred Cypress for the exterior parts. To protect the wood properly, they chose to work with the Rubio Monocoat oils. They used Oil Plus 2C for the interior wood. The colour Ash Grey perfectly accompanies the interior design. For outside, they chose the Hybrid Wood Protector in the colours Natural and Black.
