2020 Southern Architecture Awards Winner
Te Pakeke
The brief was for a winter retreat interpreted in a modern way, and the project has certainly met that request. The architects of this space were not afraid to be bold in both programme and palette. The floor-to-roof perforated shutters with brass detailing are impressive in scale and fundamentally functional: they allow control over privacy and solar gain, transforming the feel of the rooms to meet the wishes of the occupants. Mirrored walls, interior doors with disappearing lines, and exquisite metalwork detailing, combined with warm timbers, contribute to the occupational experience of an undeniably special space.
