This single level family home situated on the outskirts of Hamilton, was designed to provide a young family with a safe secluded dwelling one in which their family could nurture themselves and grow.

Nestled amongst an encasement of mature vegetation, the home is clad and constructed with materials which make reference to traditional New Zealand building materials, yet boldly represented in contemporary three dimensional forms and spatial volumes. The time-honoured palette of naturally finished stack-bonded concrete block, dark stained cedar weatherboards and evergreen glass, provides a harmonious assembly of materials to which the series of more contemporary mono-pitch roof forms, extending sun-shaded terraces and voluminous internal spaces give a fused contemporary character.
