2010 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Coromandel Beach House
This small holiday home oriented towards sun and ocean sits across the end of a long, narrow site. Relatively compact, it has been likened to a jewellery box, with a highly efficient use of available space that flows casually onto the sand and down to the water�s edge. Projections and cut outs punctuate the envelope, variously admitting light and capturing specific views, while slatted folding shutters across the living areas provide shelter from stormy weather. Careful attention to detailing and material selection complete the design with a seemingly effortless quality.
