Editors Comment:
Escalating construction costs due to the impact from Covid-19
'On account of the volatile pandemic market there has been a significant cost increase to timber (including joinery), metalwork and steelwork. International shipping container rates have also escalated by up to 200%, raising the costs of imported products'. Detailed commentary for each Australian state can be found in the 2022 Handbook.
In celebration of the 40th and 30th milestone, Rawlinsons commissioned artwork from contemporary Aboriginal Artist, Renee Clifton, who currently resides on Noongar country.
Rawlinsons are honoured to display Renee's artwork on our special editions.
