Perched on the edge of the Shotover Valley with views to the river beyond, this house takes traditional architectural lines and materials and explores them with contemporary purpose and detailing. The house nestles quietly into the surrounding landscape, without compromising connection to spectacular views and sun.

The house was designed around a sheltered, sunny courtyard, allowing views and connection to the landscape from every space. The house was planned with grown-up and extended family in mind, and works beautifully for large family gatherings as well as private retreat.
