2022 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Crinkle Cut House
This home is striking for the quality of the light that enters its spaces. Defined by perimeter walls of louvres and sliding glazed panels, the house offers a myriad of ways to open up or close down. Along with the clerestory windows, they also mediate the surrounding Pohutukawa trees and river estuary beyond. Located on a corner, the immediate press of streets provide a welcome social link to the seaside community the owners participate in. Verandas, breezeways, and internal courtyards beautifully complete this garden-centric home. Attention grabbing with its delicate pink exterior paint finish, this uniquely original house contributes generously to its neighbourhood.
