2016 Southern Architecture Awards Winner
Cardrona Hut
This is the HUT. Two pavilions connected by a sheltered core that can be opened up to the world or closed off for shelter, warmth and intimacy. The elegance and scale of the proportions are the work of an architect that understands the psychological benefits of going 'small' in an environment where mountains loom large all around. In this design, one can read a careful consideration of the things that are essential for a family - and no more. This hut, hovering gently on piles that just tiptoe across the landscape, is an ode to a simple way of living.
