2013 Hawkes Bay/Gisborne Architecture Awards Winner
MacIntyre Holiday House
Dramatically sited on an exposed hill overlooking the ocean, this home protects and shelters its occupants. Carefully detailed, with a simple palette of materials, the house does not try to compete with its dramatic context. The creation of an internal courtyard, where visitors and occupants can relax while still taking in the stunning views, provides the ultimate in a protected space. The house, which can accommodate numerous guests while retaining privacy for the owners, is an unmistakable expression of New Zealand vernacular.
