2021 Hawkes Bay/Gisborne Architecture Awards Winner
Portacom Lodge
This refreshingly simple project fashions a wonderful holiday setting from ruggedly prefabricated structures enriched with bespoke elements. Two Portacom cabins bestowed with beguiling interiors are separated by a sheltered link and overlook the sweep of Wainui Beach. The robust cabins are contrasted by more delicate pergola and roof structures that define exterior spaces. A sheltered northern court is warm and inviting, even when tested by vigorous coastal winds. It is a joy to experience how well this encampment responds to its site with both strength and subtlety.
