The second of our two projects to win an award this week at the Wellington Architecture Awards 2024, was for Wadestown House in the Housing - Alterations and Additions category. Thank you to our super lovely clients for the confidence they put in us, and to Ian and the team at Pinnacle Construction for your care in building this home.
Citation: A villa renovation and extension accommodate the needs of a growing family now and into the future. Clever architectural thinking considers the steep site and aspect, creating intriguing, sun-filled volumes with new living, dining, kitchen and utility areas. Progression from the street through the existing villa and down the stairs to the new family areas is a sophisticated strategy of three-dimensional play. New windows frame the bush views beyond and successfully interlock old and new. Delight is brought to everyday living, with a morning courtyard providing an outdoor room, and the over-height glazed Douglas for window frame providing depth, richness and a playful place to perch.
Thank you once again to the jury of Mary Daish, .studio Natasha Markham, Stephanie Gardner, and .co.nz Beth Cameron. And thanks to the sponsors and
