2016 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
Duncan Bay House
A beautiful site in a challenging environment has been provided with a well-designed and well-planned house. A number of external spaces offer shelter in the landscape, each providing an option for being comfortably outside in any of the prevailing winds. The house has been well modulated and positioned so that it claims stunning views down the bay without dominating the landscape. Strong materials acknowledge the demands of the testing environment, and their colours also work to blend the house into its surroundings.
