Wakatipu House 2025

Set in a forested site above the lake with views to Cecil Peak, the brief called for a robust, thermally efficient family home that supports comfort, wellness, and restoration.

The plan is organised around a central courtyard and a large entry/multi-purpose space, with generous volumes and strong connections to the surrounding landscape.

A planted green roof spans both levels, formed over an arched concrete structure. Its soft curves embrace the spaces below while echoing the natural forms of the landscape.
