CKS Projects has been voted the winner of the 2026 Illawarra Festival of Architecture & Design People's Choice Award (Renovation) for Elanora Four, our Coledale project designed by Alex Urena Design Studio.
The result was announced on 7 November 2026 at Coledale RSL, and it was decided by a public vote. It says something about how a coastal escarpment home gets built here: a tight, sloping site, a designer and builder working from the same plans, and a finished home that suits the way the family lives.
As Wollongong custom home builders, the same approach carries across our work: custom homes, knockdown rebuilds, duplexes, second storey and rear extensions, and whole-home renovations. We handle site and slope constraints, Wollongong City Council pathways, and fixed-scope pricing before work starts.
