2013 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Ngunguru House
Passive solar design principles appear to be at the core of this delightful home. The design takes advantage of the northern climate, capturing the sun, providing thermal mass and cross ventilation to realise a warm, comfortable family home with a variety of spaces in which to enjoy the sun or retreat from the sea breezes. Materials have been sustainably sourced and on-site wastewater disposal and water collection tanks have also been incorporated.
