2016 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Studio & Garden Room - Peters House
In the New Zealand vernacular tradition of reclaiming the space-stealing double garage, a blockwork garage bunker has been transformed into a sophisticated pavilion. It represents a deft balance of heavy and light components, a palette of black and white along with careful consideration of jig-saw connections and insertions to the main house. The dovetailing of ideas between architect, client and artist has been cleverly resolved in materials, detail and orientation to produce an elegant transformation for living and working.
