2024 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Waikanae Beach House
A rich palette of natural materials brings warmth and tactility to this new beach home. The exterior is softly patterned in lusitanica screens, shingles and siding, designed to weather in place. The interior unfolds as a series of spaces that change in degree of enclosure and volume, providing views within and beyond the building. This spatial dynamic allows the home to cater for different moods and numbers of people as demands require. Generous where it needs to be, the home embodies a sort of low-key luxury appropriate for its coastal locale.
