2024 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Houghton Bay House
Amid a sea of new and exuberant homes, Houghton Bay House presents a quiet and assured proposition to building in the suburbs. Organised as a cluster of buildings, the stepping and rotating forms allow the home to negotiate a steep site while, at the same time, creating spaces within and between the buildings. This arrangement delivers a home with spatial richness and allows flexibility in the way it is occupied. Windows of the same proportion but different scales animate the façades and connect occupants with their surroundings through carefully framed views.
