Set in native forest on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand, the aesthetic concept of BIV Punakaiki Cabin was a reinterpretation of a historic gold miners hut. The cabin took cues from the exterior chimneys of these huts. Internally, the top skylight represents the top of the smokestack.
Taking cues from the classic Australian cottages that once lined this coastal peninsular, our Woodworkers Cottage makes reference to the humble qualities of the cottage whilst highlighting these details through exquisite craftsmanship.
The Woodworkers Barn is a second stage addition to the Woodworkers Cottage. Designed as a parents retreat/ kids chill out zone/ alternative second living area that connects with the landscape and existing rear deck.
