2010 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Motuoapa House
This family holiday house turns its back on the neighbours and orients its spaces towards Lake Taupo. Overlapping planes of various tactile materials filter sunlight though slatted timber screens that blend with the cladding of the exterior. It has been built to a modest budget for casual holiday living and is suitably rugged for the purpose. External materials are repeated internally in different ways and large areas of glazing reinforce specific connections to the site.
