2021 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Wai-Iti House
This Fendalton site was subdivided to provide a street-side house for sale, and a house for the owner in the favoured riverside location at the rear. The plan is artfully arranged around a dramatic double-height living room with single-storey wings for dining and a loggia - both overlooking the river. The material palette of generous glazing, black metalwork and cabinetry is enhanced by delicate drapery, and anchored by white bagged Roman brickwork walls and timber flooring, resulting in a luxurious and comfortable home.
