2021 Western Architecture Awards Winner
M + M House
M + M House conforms to the extremes of its exposed coastal site in Warea, Taranaki. With larch exterior cladding, pile foundations, and a subtly contorted gable form, it responds to the conditions of its landscape through texture, durability, colour and shelter, and is also transportable. In response to an extensive brief, the home provides incredible amenity within a small footprint. It could be considered as two separate, small dwellings connected by a protected deck, which captures expansive views of both Mt Taranaki and the rugged coastline on which it sits. A surprising composition of quirky, fun elements throughout the house’s interior is combined with serene, earthy, and elegant details to make M + M House an enticing place to dwell.
