Bold gabled forms meet refined natural materials in this striking New Plymouth home. Designed by Imagine Architecture of Tauranga and built by Peter Barnes Construction, the dramatic roofline creates expansive interior volumes while commanding attention from the street. The exterior showcases our Japanese cedar cladding in a vertical shiplap weatherboard profile, finished in our Yakisugi option — a charred timber treatment that adds depth and character to the home’s architectural statement.

Location: New Plymouth
