2020 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner

Tutukaka House

Once again, Herbst Architects have delivered a well-considered and exquisitely crafted house by the sea, in this case a home surrounded by pastoral land and pockets of native bush with a stunning view towards the Poor Knights Islands. The use of rammed earth construction to anchor both ends of the building contrasts with a lightly-touching-the-earth verandah-like structure spanning between them. Beautifully detailed timber interiors and a visible and coherent structure blur the line between inside and out in a small house that provides admirable comfort and delight.
