2017 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Town House
A refreshing take on the urban residential typology, this house intelligently explores the boundaries between public and private space. Three courtyards offset by three volumes create a sophisticated array of internal and external spaces that engage with the whole site, leaving no square metre wanting. Tight budget constraints have driven innovative craftsmanship, enhanced by simple materials which slip inside and outside, from low to high; the architect has kept a tight command of sightlines and scale in designing a dramatic home that is a treasure to inhabit.
