2019 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
Ngāhere Hou
A simple series of pre-fabricated modular elements has been skilfully crafted and arranged into a gentle arc to create a highly liveable and fully off-grid house that captures views of both Kenepuru and Pelorous Sounds. The richly crafted interior is a result of exposed timber, all from local forests. Special mention must be made of the ingenuity shown in incorporating structural bracing, shuttered openings and glazed strips into the connections between modular elements.
