2022 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Aigéan, Opito Bay
From a distance, this coastal beach home resembles a UFO nestled in the Coromandel foreshore. On closer inspection, this zinc armadillo-clad beach home is a delightful juxtaposition of crisp angles contrasted with the lush, undulating beachscape. The home’s interior utilises a spare colour pallet, fibrous plaster panels and a gloriette floor. Spaces are organised like cabins, with sleeping quarters, generously sized living spaces and a kitchen area that provides a year-round sense of exhilaration and fun for multigenerational living.
