Designed for a local builder, this house capitalises on the topography and aspect of the sloping hill site in Atawhai, Nelson. A clearly defined podium level anchors the building to the site, providing a central point of access, garage and self contained studio and courtyard.A more traditional gabled family home sits above this, maximising the structure underneath to provide large areas of flat deck and grass. Accentuated gables and integrated landscaped outdoor spaces combine in this family home.
