Located on the coastal Manukau Harbour of Auckland, this home is positioned on a large site facing the sea to the south and sloping steeply down to harbour reserve and water edge. The project extensively refurbishes, alters and adds to an existing house, an outmoded 1970’s bungalow.

The approach to the home directs focus to horizontal ribbed zinc clad box mimicking the grey moody hues and rippling waves of the Manukau Harbour. Living spaces are purposefully directed to the view south with a series of decks, layered as platforms down the site.
