2013 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
S House
A strong idea and the close collaboration of architect and landscaper have resulted in an adventurous house that takes an innovative approach to the inner-suburban family dwelling. Organised around its front and rear courtyard gardens, the house snakes down its long, narrow site; adjusted to the uneven topography, the house is positioned to connect with its immediate landscape and to be screened from less advantageous views of neighbouring houses. Like all buildings, the house might have its faults; the enthusiastic and admirable embrace of architectural possibilities is not one of them.
