2015 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Local Awards Winner
Big Sky Farm House
This interior, for dairy farmers and their three teenagers, reflects a desire to respond to the big sky of the Hauraki Plains. The design is evidence of a strong relationship between client and architect and a willingness to experiment, inside as well as out, with varied materials, including some, such as pre-fabricated composite steel and polystyrene panels, that are more typically found in dairy industry cool stores. This interior responds well to the natural environment and to the client’s brief, with separate areas for children and parents allowing the home to be opened up or shut down as the requirements of the family dictate.
