What’s on the Drawing Board – Creating a modern farmhouse in the stunning native bush.

We were thrilled to be part of this milestone project with our clients, building their first house together. The brief was clear and fun – create a home that has a farmhouse feel with a modern twist.

We designed a sloped rafter ceiling and used vertical exposed timber batons to add height to a large, central space and to give it a somewhat rustic interior finish. A folded metal roof follows the same crisp lines of the batons.

This inviting, open-plan central space creates the ideal entertaining zone and extends out onto a north-west facing deck that overlooks the stunning native bush.

What’s on the Drawing Board – generating retirement income through subdividing.

Our clients here were looking for a simple, modern design for a home to build on land they weren’t using. Subdividing off approximately 300 square metres of a relatively flat section, we made the most of a sun-drenched section with an L-shaped design facing north and west.

Folded metal cladding on the exterior walls and the roofing create one continuous metal fall with simple, clean lines that are complemented by vertical timber panels on the interior walls.

To give the home a sense of spaciousness and to maximise the natural light into the house, we angled the ceiling to match the roof and used bi-fold doors to open up the living area out onto a level deck which then extends out into the garden.

The result is an attractive single level, 3-bedroom house that will appeal to a range of buyers.

What’s on the Drawing Board – Family bach in Taupo.

We surprised even ourselves here with how much we were able to accomplish with a relatively simple design. Our brief was to create a cost-effective holiday home that was comfortable, easy to maintain, and that could accommodate three generations of one family. The owner is going to build it himself, so it was important that we designed around affordable and easy-to-use materials.

The result is a gorgeous family bach and sleep-out, centred around an open-living courtyard for dining and entertaining. With a central, removable shade sail that connects all the zones of the bach, we have a comfortable family bach that can be used year-round.

What’s on the Drawing Board – Layout and Room Rearrange for a Relocated Bungalow

“It feels like a new home!”

New builds aren’t the only thing that get us excited. We LOVE remodelling a home to make the most of the space and the view. With this recent remodelling project we had a lot to work with – and a lot that just didn’t make any sense in the original design. Our project here was a gorgeous old bungalow with lots of space and stunning views out to the sea. Unfortunately, when the home was relocated to its current site, not a lot of thought was given to which direction the house was facing and which rooms would enjoy the sea views and afternoon sun. Without a lot of major structural change, we were able to rearrange the rooms and layout, moving the kitchen and lounge areas to the north and west sides of the house, to maximise the afternoon sun. We modernised the front entranceway to make the home more inviting. And we tidied up the roofline to create a better flow, making the most of the 3-metre high ceilings. It feels like a new home, and has all the space needed for visitors and large family gatherings.
