2012 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Storm Cottage
In form, a simple and elegant building that presents a low profile on an exposed site, this is a contemporary bach with a sophistication veiled by a layering of glass sliding doors, bifolding metal screens and curtain tracks. This strategy allows for protection against the elements, access and connection to the views, and the maximizing of available space. The success of the architects’ approach is evident in the execution of the interior, in which a restrained palette of materials and well-designed elements provides for compelling habitation.
