Park Vue is a two-storey holiday home with a mannered response to the surrounding neighbourhood. It has a cleverly modelled H shaped footprint which allows for good public and private space separation, while also maximising views of Whangamatā. The well-appointed, comfortable interior is finished with a refined yet robust palette of materials that include sarked cedar ceilings and timber detailing, as well as subtle industrial finishes. Both restful and lively, this is a house of many moods and shows how multiple generations can easily cohabitate in a holiday home.
