Selected Project

Whangapoua Beach House

Casually laid-back yet highly refined, this small-scale holiday home is oriented north-east towards the ocean, sun and distant islands. An open-plan living space, glazed across both front and back, forms the main body of the house. The glazing opens out for casual access onto the sand and directly down to the water. A series of bi-folding slatted cedar shutters open across the elevations to the living zone. As the neighbours are very near, these panels provide a privacy screen to the sides when open; when closed they provide shelter from stormy weather and ensure security when the bach is not in use.
