To complement the tranquil and intimate character of the existing landscape, the dwelling uses a natural and aesthetically soft palette of materials and colours. The use of light and dark vertical stained cedar cladding's fits to the rough textures and colours of the surrounding trees with the juxtaposition of the heavy stack bonded brick to anchor it to the site like the rocks in the banks of the stream. The house is designed around the trees, with each room orientated towards its window which frames up different vistas of the seasonal landscape whether it is the tree trunk or the leaves of the branch. From the outside in, the house is two storeys high, with each of the two storeys being split further to follow the natural ground level and to keep the dwelling as low to the ground as possible without infringing the maximum height and flood plain restrictions. When entering the dwelling, the entrance foyer is a double height space with a double garage to the left and a bedroom/office and guest bathroom on the right. Down a small flight of stairs, the hallway leads to another level which includes stairs which lead up to the second floor and on the other side a formal lounge. Then down another flight of stairs leads to a large open planned living, dining and kitchen spaces. On the second storey, the stairs lead onto a landing for the master bedroom with walk-in-wardrobe and ensuite. Continuing on up another few steps leads to an open shared study space with two bedrooms and a shared bathroom.

“VERY PROFESSIONAL" We have enjoyed a very good working relationship with the Cadman Design team for the past 10 years. In this time Cadman has designed for our mutual clients many projects, new luxury homes, minor dwellings, renovations and extensions, a subdivision of land and a commercial retail development. Cadman has also carried out design work for my family personally with the designs for a renovation to our existing home and a new minor dwelling for our lifestyle property in Okura. We have found the team to be very professional to deal with and have savoured the fact that Cadman is willing to work with us - the project managers, to achieve a good quality design for the clients to a budget they can afford. Cadman's attention to detailing along with their ability to produce clear legible specification and an easily read set of plans make building their designs very easy. Our clients have always spoken highly of the Cadman team and have found them easy to get along with, they are very capable of producing the dream home our clients want to live in. A testament to this is that Cadman Architectural Design recently completed the design for 3 town houses which are close to the end of their construction program, and have just completed the design for a clients lifestyle property in Silverdale which is due to go in for consent. Both personally and on behalf of our company Frontline Projects Limited we would have no problems what so ever in recommending Cadman Architectural Design for future design work.”
