2016 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Hahei House
The architect's analogy for the house as patterning in sand is reflected in the clever folding planes that form the enclosure. The sculptural simplicity of the form is beautifully embodied in the warm, honey-coloured timber linings. Sinuous lines seem to envelop almost every surface, a built emulation of the coastal sand dunes of the surrounding landscape. The architect has engaged closely with his clients to deliver a house that delights and enthrals.
