2023 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Beach Hut
This 17m2 ‘tiny home’ exemplifies the architects’ expertise in prefabricated and transportable micro-dwellings. Serving as supplementary accommodation at a picturesque beachfront locale, the structure opens effortlessly to site and is spatially dynamic internally, framing views and allowing multi-faceted inhabitation and use. While the technical achievements of portability are inherent, its formal gestures are architecturally dynamic and refined. Material curation and detail further distinguish the building as a laudable, human-centred structure that is intimately connected to its surroundings, rather than a mere functional unit on wheels.
