2023 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Omata Beach House
This exceptional home sits quietly in a pristine natural environment that provides cues as to its form and ambition. The external material palette of timber and rock combines with two contrasting forms positioned carefully beneath pōhutukawa and as a backdrop to the exceptional views over the bay. The highly efficient linear plan sits beneath a sweeping roof form, dividing public from private in an effortless combination of spatial simplicity and reduced materiality. The architects on-going research and deployment of custom, external envelope solutions are beautifully articulated with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.
