2010 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Fox-Hansen House
Owners and architect have been in tune and not held back in the development of this idiosyncratic house. Built on a tight site, it is composed of slipping linear forms and spaces arranged around a series of individual courtyards and achieves a striking balance between playfulness, formality and surprise. Climatically sophisticated, with rich material quality, inventive detailing and a well-negotiated relationship with neighbours, the dwelling is imbued with a sense of intrigue and discovery.
