2011 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Church Bay House
This modest rectilinear box is entered at first floor level across a bridge, gangplank-style, evoking a sense of being afloat on the harbour that forms much of the northern view. Living areas avoid the ubiquitous open-plan, instead providing a versatile arrangement of spaces of varying scales and enclosure. Materials have been carefully chosen and thoughtfully detailed, both inside and out. This is a simple and honest work of very good domestic architecture.
