A modern-day castle designed for Christchurch earthquake refugees, blending traditional castle elements with energy-efficient passive house principles in the alpine setting of Queenstown.
This home showcased on Grand Designs NZ was Christchurch earthquake refugees Andy Macbeth and Jo Denton's modern-day castle against the elements in alpine Queenstown.
The couple's dream was to include the castle elements in a modernist energy-efficient 'passive house' to protect their family against earthquakes and climate extremes.
