2012 Hawkes Bay/Gisborne Architecture Awards Winner
Mangakuri Bach
Sheltered behind native trees, this comfortable, functional and modest seaside bach opens unselfconsciously into the landscape. The building addresses its context, and respects the spirit of place, by acknowledging the traces and memories of the old family bach. A simple and clear palette of materials adds to the relaxed holiday feel. The unstained Lawson Cypress cladding will age and weather gracefully as the bach accrues the family holiday experiences of future generations.
