2024 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Kororā Retreat
Rationalisation of historic additions to a kitset bach has resulted in an elegant, warm and inviting home. This house now provides a relaxed, adaptable coastal retreat for a couple and their extended family and friends. Artfully detailed, ply insertions hover within a crisply textured white interior, extending the upper floor plate. Opening into an enclosed verandah, the sea vista is now enjoyed from within the house while maintaining privacy from the coastal walk. Materials sympathetic to the context have been used for the exterior, while being contemporary in their use.
