Positioned on the side of Mt Iron in Wanaka, surrounded in Kanuka and schist rock this home follows the slope of the valley it inhabits. One of the linchpin design elements is the spectacular use of rammed earth.

Entry into the first level brings you into a warm and inviting atmosphere which then descends down to the living and dining area via extensive rammed earth walls.

To complement the rammed earth elements, the cladding is Prefa Aluminium Patina Grey and cedar cladding.

The interior is recycled Rimu from Christchurch, as well as bamboo and strand board stained.

German style timber window joinery has been made out of Sybrian larch and kwila and windows fitted with triple glazed glass from Germany.
