2012 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Gladehouse
A Sixties bungalow has been subtly and sensitively altered to create an elegant and warmly-toned treasure in a suburban glade. The flow of air and play of light has been masterfully handled in realising a restful house that is a joy to inhabit. In the careful grafting of new elements to existing structure the architects have provided a demonstration of sustainability in action. The architect’s empathy with the site and the client’s needs is evident in the restrained artistry of a house that’s truly at home in its natural environment.
