2016 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner

Field Way Bach

This playful, low-key and relaxed alteration of a two-storey Waikanae beach house retains the spirit of the 'bach'. The extremely discreet makeover sees the addition of a 'bridge' floor that links to new ground-floor storage spaces. The upper floor is long and slim, with glass on two sides forming relationships to sea and sheltered decks. The opening under the 'bridge' provides vibrancy to the quiet forms, as do the brilliant colour choices which contrast with a soft and peaceful plywood-clad interior.
