2024 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
B House
With focus given to creating generous and usable living spaces, this carefully sculpted design brings a new identity and life to a family home, while also referencing and retaining much of the original 1970s house. A new deck doubles as cover at the entrance. In the kitchen and living area, the inspired dropped and folded ceiling articulates the space and accommodates structure, discrete lighting and connection of the new sculptural addition. A framed window seat connects the living spaces with the neighbourhood and is articulated on the exterior to compliment the striking assembly of black forms. A wonderful example of minimal architectural intervention for maximum effect to achieve generous contemporary family living.
