Palm Beach Coastal Retreat
Waiheke Island / under construction
Architectural ambition. A realistic budget. A design shaped around its owner.
Conceived to maximise design impact on a strictly controlled budget, this coastal retreat balances architectural clarity with resourceful material selection. The exterior is wrapped in a cost-effective ply and batten cladding system, complemented by a fine-grained narrow shiplap lining the deep architectural recess to create rich textural depth. Inside, an open-plan layout anchors the living spaces around a central kitchen illuminated by a skylight positioned precisely above the kitchen island. Water tanks tucked below the house maintain a seamless, uncluttered relationship with the surrounding terrain.
