2025 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Heathcote Valley House
Fun, colourful and richly textured. Designed in collaboration with a young family as their first home, this house is playful, not too precious and undeniably homely. Carefully positioned on the site, engaging both the immediate landscape and greater context, the house actively embraces changes in its surrounding environment providing a building that is both pavilion and refuge. The interiors have been thoughtfully crafted, incorporating the client’s profession as a florist through dedicated ledges, shelves and surfaces and layering appropriate materials and colours throughout, including some delectable elements of whimsy. A delightful, discreet little home that sits perfectly in its environment.
