2024 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner

Dorset House

Unassuming, this beautifully crafted brick home sits tightly on its narrow site, while deftly sharing a resplendent garden with the street. Light-drenched bricks are set against crisp-white textured walls. Brick screens and shutters add interest, dapple light and ventilate. A double-height volume captures sun, adding warmth and changing patterns of light to the living area. Through a carefully considered plan and calmly composed details, the house is testimony to an architect’s ability to rise above budget constraints and site limitations.
