2025 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Alberon
A new entry positioned between the heritage villa and rear addition unlocked the potential of this project. A clear separation of old and new is expressed through material choice and architectural detail. The two-storey addition creates a lofty, open-plan living space with a contemplative quality, seamlessly extending to a terraced garden through elegant giant steel doors. A north-facing deck edges the living area, its louvered screen wall providing privacy from the densely populated slope beyond. Meticulous detailing across both renovation and addition creates a rich dialogue between past and present.
