A thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom residence for a semi-retired couple, strategically positioned on a tight urban site to maximize stunning views of Kapiti Island and The South Island, featuring a low-profile gable form that harmonizes with its coastal surroundings.

Built on a tight urban section on the edge of a sand dune, this project provides a semi-retired couple a 3 bedroom house that maximises existing views. The form of the house and interior spatial qualities are developed from a low ridge point at the roadside that minimizes the volume of the house. The simple gable ridge line rises at a slight angle towards the sea, with the living areas having the most voluminous spaces overlooking the expansive views of Kapiti Island and The South Island

“Copeland House "We have been living in our new house for a year now and want to say we are extremely happy with it. After living in it through the four seasons it fulfills all our requirements all year round. The space works brilliantly for us and we really appreciate the louvred windows. Having been house bound for the last month, we have appreciated it even more! Many thanks again.”
