Nestled on a stunning Northland shoreline, Encampment by Strachan Group Architects transforms a rugged coastal site into a harmonious ensemble of dwellings and cabins. By thoughtfully blending existing structures with new landscaping, this project delivers comfort, sustainability, and breathtaking views—whether you’re inside the re-purposed barn or stepping out to the water’s edge.

Back House / Strachan Group Architects

Back House is a charming retreat tucked behind another home, designed as a minor dwelling for a young family. This compact residence enhances quality of life by making the most of a sunny spot in the rear garden. With an efficient footprint of just 64 sqm, it offers everything a home needs while remaining delightfully detailed and highly functional.
