Selected Project
Kaiteriteri Family Bach
A family summer tradition of camping at Kaiteriteri beach, segued our clients to purchase one of the last remaining flat sections in Kaiteriteri, overlooking the Kahu Close wetland. Their brief was for something unique, a balance between the traditional kiwi summer bach and honouring our client’s modern living requirements. The bach would have separate zones for the adults and children, be designed to entertain numerous family members, and also provide a private retreat. We designed the bach as a series of sleeping cabins with glass linkways, built around a central entertaining space and outdoor deck opening toward the wetland and gardens. Utility spaces positioned along the west edge provide a privacy buffer to the street, and the kitchen, beautifully crafted by Living Design, does away with the typical island and opens the area as an informal, relaxed kitchen zone.
