2018 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
Candish House
Gracing a prominent corner overlooking Nelson’s Cathedral Hill, this carefully composed house elegantly contributes to the historic context of its mature city-fringe site. Working collaboratively, the architect and owner-builder have produced a beautiful and sophisticated home that is both immaculately built and carefully organised to meet evolving family needs. The house is raised and set back from the street, with living and outdoor spaces borrowing shelter and outlook from the nearby cathedral-like arbour. Privacy has been achieved through the careful assignment of levels, disposition of landscape walls and the rhythmic vertical fins that regulate views from within.
