2022 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Crinkle Cut
This relaxed and enchanting house accommodates a retired couple, plus their extended family for holidays. The dwelling fits into its suburban context yet differentiates itself from its neighbours. Living is arranged around a series of courtyards to provide natural light and outlook within the tight site. Privacy and proximity to the street are mediated with a series of louvred decks, which lend a holiday feel to the environments created. Roof forms connect with the sky and pōhutukawa without compromising privacy. Landscaping provides a house that mingles the inside with the outside.
