2009 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Scarborough Hill House
Although affording spectacular views of Pegasus Bay and the Alps, the site’s diamond shape, 30° slope and exacting recession plains presented the architect with challenges. There is a compelling logic to the response, with its three levels descending from an entry/sleeping level, through to family living then to a lower level for guests and recreation. It is the spatial and structural composition, together with the clarity of material use and detailing that make this house memorable. The house has an affinity with its site, which will continue to develop as landscaping matures.
