2025 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
BB House
On a tiny section with a tree-lined outlook, this delightful project is both functional and playful. Each space is defined by a 3x3 grid, yet the home is full of surprises. Thoughtfully prioritized spaces include a full walk-in wardrobe, a private sun-drenched courtyard, and separate kitchen, living, and sleeping areas. The stained weatherboards are adorned with slim scribed battens and copper soaker flashings, elevating the exterior like jewels. A bedroom with a view of the stars, a hidden bathtub, and a joyful colour palette make the home feel abundant, proving that small can also be generous and beautiful.
