This project involves a comprehensive revitalization of beachfront property in Takapuna, combining coastal aesthetics with the transformation of an existing early 2000s plaster house. Drawing inspiration from the coastal environment, the exterior showcases weathered natural timber cladding that weathers with time, mirroring the rugged coastal landscape, while silver Colorsteel tray cladding adds a contemporary touch, reflecting the ocean's shimmer. Timber screens and channel glass invite playful exploration with natural and dappled light, enhancing the connection to the coastal surroundings while maintaining privacy and framing breathtaking views of the reef and Rangitoto Island. A standout feature includes a dramatic gable cantilever extending over the new garage, adding both functional shelter and a visual statement to the design. This project aims to capture the untamed beauty of the coast, fostering a connection with the ever-changing marine landscape.
