2011 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
West Coast Bach
The Architect has used simple construction methods and has embraced environmental principles to reduce the impact of the house in its remote setting. Robust materials, including salvaged timber, suggest the area’s history and evoke a sense of permanence. The bach has a small footprint but with its clever design and links and interactions with its powerful site, it seems larger than the sum of its constructed spaces.
