Selected Project
Menzies POP!
In this imaginative project – an exercise in out and out bespoke design – a 1940s concrete house in the Christchurch beachside suburb of Sumner has been refurbished, reworked and extended upwards to meet the needs of its young architects and their family. The house is an intrepid self-experiment in small living: the design offers many surprises as every bit of space is pressed into habitational service. New and old elements are clearly distinguished, but they have in common crisp and careful detailing. The house is an assemblage of contained spaces, and an idiosyncratic expression of architectural passion.
