2023 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner

Point House

This thoughtfully conceived home is a simple floor plan extruded beneath an out-sized gable roof form to create a series of intimate living spaces. The resulting interplay of solid and void, and a seemingly perfect amount of natural light that delicately bathes interior walls, produces a captivating and joyful serenity. This extends to an external living room beneath the gable and then into to a finely crafted courtyard garden in contrast to the rambling community garden to the rear of the property. This refined project provides numerous lessons in combining straightforward planning solutions and minimal formal expression, with a limited material and colour palette, to great effect.
