National Winner

This was an extensive renovation of an old lakeside holiday home on the southern bay of Lake Rotoiti. Another floor level and raised car-deck were added to the existing four split levels cascading down the hillside.
ADNZ Resene Total Colour Residential Maestro Award
TOI OHOMAI WOOD PROCESSING WORKSHOP
The concept was informed by the two distinct functional requirements of timber workshop and academic spaces. The metaphor of saw milling was used, where cutting “divides” or “separates”.
