The crew
The Salty Dogs take underused spaces and turn them into places people actually live in. Homes across Byron, Bangalow and Lennox, and commercial work up to council scale.
A salty dog is someone who has spent their life by the sea. We live here, surf here and plant here, so we know what thrives ten minutes from the beach.

Consultation & design
This is a real SaltyDog plan. We walk your block with you, listen to how you want to live outside, and draw a plan that fits the land, the light and the budget.
