2023 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Apple Shed
This modest home is inspired by local horticultural history. Adopting the aesthetic of the apple crate, a rural form is beautifully crafted to create a home that belongs to its landscape. The design solution contains a clever sequence of internal volumes that draws light deep into the interior – and in combination with a simple palette of materials and textures, generates a warm and relaxed environment. Reduced, minimal and without pretence, this project illustrates so clearly how simplicity in design is the most sustainable strategy architects can employ.
