Mahuika House, Waiheke Island, New Zealand
The clients were a family living abroad that commissioned us to design a holiday home that included a 20m pool as they wished to form a connection back to their native Aotearoa.
New Zealand
Awaawaroa Bay Off-Grid House / Cheshire Architects
Our clients fell in love with this south-facing site and the idea of occupying it completely, without formality and off-grid. We proposed not a house, but an encampment: three small buildings embodying different aspects of occupation, clustered around a loose sun-drenched courtyard.
Sugi House / Condon Scott Architects
The Sugi house and the areas of glazing are orientated to maximise solar gain, with minimal openings on the remaining sides of the house to preserve the thermal envelope.
Skylark Cabin by Barry Connor Architectural Design
Conceived as a place for relaxation and retreat the intention was to provide for only the essentials: a place to cook, sleep, reflect and bathe.
Desmond Street House by Arthouse Architects
Planned to embrace the sun and social street frontage, this family home opens to the north – blurring the interface between spaces and providing flexible year-round living.
Fendalton Residence / O’Neil Architecture
A rare and unique invitation presented itself in the form of a large blank canvas within a leafy blue-chip Christchurch suburb where we were given complete autonomy and freedom over the aesthetic direction of our client’s home.
Nau Mai House / O’Neil Architecture
Nau Mai House offers the dream resort lifestyle, situated just a stone’s throw from a trout fly-fishing river, a golf course, tennis courts, and cycling and walking paths.
Lean on Me House / Strachan Group Architects
Continuing the tradition of refurbishment of Auckland’s heritage housing stock, this project is a re-interpretation of the ‘lean-to’ form.
