Hill House banner

A dramatic sloping roof shelters a series of spaces that cascade down the length of this narrow site. The client’s request for an exemplary hillside home that maximises views of Wellington city and the distant harbour has resulted in an unobtrusive form that also maintains the views from neighbouring homes. A central circulation spine links the stepped north-facing living spaces and courtyards, while utility areas and snug spaces form a ribbon of use along the south side. The result is a light-filled family home with an amazing connection to the city.

Novak+Middleton is an NZIA award-winning architectural practice. We specialise in creating innovative and quality architecture, offering a comprehensive personalised service to our clients. The thirty year working relationship of the practice directors has grounded Novak+Middleton with extensive experience in all aspects of residential and commercial architecture, including large scale multi-unit housing, new homes, additions and alterations, and interior architectural design.

As an architectural practice we believe the strength of good design stems from a sensible and honest use of materials and space, combined together with a thorough understanding of a client's objectives. These can then be integrated in a contemporary manner that is appropriate to each individual client.

Our team has considerable experience, offering design and technical excellence. Our professional service covers all facets of the build, from the initial meeting through to completion of the project.
