Absolutely thrilled to receive an NZIA local award for our New Plymouth Project last week 🥂

Jury citation:

“Moturoa beach is the undeniable star of this carefully curated resort-style family home, whose upper level is itself a frame for living. From the front door, through the indoor and outdoor living spaces, even a conversation pit, this home showcases the best materials Aotearoa has to offer, seamlessly detailed, revealing generously proportioned dramatic living where everything has been attended to. The architect has imbued it all with a subdued, moody elegance through a carefully chosen color palette and theatre-inspired lighting.
Challenging materials in the form of plank-formed concrete slabs, along with an exacting client, reinforce this as a standout
of its genre”

Absolutely thrilled to receive an NZIA local award for our Lake Rotoiti Project last week.

The jury citation:

“Designed as a family holiday retreat, Fillmore House is nestled into the base of a native bush clad hill in Okawa Bay. Lake Rotoiti. With its clean, rectangular form, the building's raw and robust textures frame the lake views - it sits beautifully in the native bush, exuding a sense of belonging and permanence. The interior is moody and inviting, complimented by warm timber tones, dark steel, and well-considered lighting.
Seamless indoor-outdoor flow on the lower level incorporates a generous overhang and sunken firepit. These elements
provide sheltered gathering spaces year-round and encourage social interactions with neighbours strolling the fenceless lakefront yard”
