Selected Project
Clifton Hill House
An award-winning addition to a modernist home in Sumner, Christchurch, originally designed in 1965 by Austrian architect, Ernest Kalnins. Commanding spectacular views over the Pacific Ocean and Christchurch city, the house had previously been used only for holidays. Our brief was to convert it into a comfortable and contemporary, permanent home. The project encountered a number of hurdles along the way, not least the two Christchurch earthquakes, but the challenges, coupled with a close and trusting client relationship, only enriched the outcome. A careful balance was found between retaining the integrity of the original design, and many of its key features, while fulfilling the needs of our clients for a dream home to retire to.
