2023 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Sandhill House
Sandhill House is a prime example of an affordable, space-efficient and aesthetically pleasing timber beach house. The focus on key architectural elements, such as natural lighting, an open floorplan, and efficient use of space, maximises potential while minimising costs. Sustainability practices and the use of cost-effective materials further demonstrate the integration of quality design within budget constraints. The building's adaptability and anticipation of future needs reflects its practical functionality. Early collaboration with builders and a cost-effective structural solution provided by the engineer resulted in the project’s successful completion within budget and on time.
