2023 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Maungakiekie House
This family home projects two distinct identities – a robust urban presence on a main arterial road in contrast to a softer, permeable character facing the rural-like landscape of Cornwall Park. The division of public and private is well handled with a planning solution that clearly demarcates function and use. Views to the park take in pastures and grazing animals and reflect the owners’ desire to connect with a rural landscape, yet have the convenience of urban living. While significant in area, this family home is modest in character and attitude and is well suited to its unique location.
