2021 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Awaawaroa
This retreat is an inspirational example of off-grid and pared-back living. The purposeful separation of living and accommodation buildings, and the creative use of utilitarian materials such as canvas to clad them, comprises a clever reimagining of the archetypal campsite. The small cabins, connected by a communal living shed and courtyard, celebrate simplicity both inside and out, but upon closer examination are articulated with precise attention to detail and an appreciation for the beauty found in true functionality.
