2022 House of the Year | Gold Award Winner | Category Winner $1.5M - $2M

Clad in a combination of cedar, schist and plaster, this stunning two-storey home has bold, crisp street appeal. An Otsumigaki double-height feature wall and floating oak timber staircase warmly welcome you into this contemporary family home. The carefully considered layout has been designed to suit the client’s specific living requirements, from self-contained family accommodation options to a lift provision. Views have been maximised with the main living and designer kitchen on the first floor, flowing seamlessly to the louvred barbecue area, creating a wonderful space with multiple-use options. The custom kitchen consists of bold textures and lines, making it a pleasure to navigate and entertain in. Otsumigaki has also been used to create a stunning feature of the fireplace and entertainment unit, which is flanked with fitted joinery and creates the perfect set-up for a cosy movie night. Light and bright spaces are accentuated by opening skylights, over-height and vaulted ceilings, with the added protection of blue-tint glazing. Stunning, spacious bathrooms and ducted heating throughout make this home very easy to enjoy and admire.

About the
Professional

Gravity Architecture creates exceptional properties, including residential and commercial developments.

Gravity Architecture takes on all types of projects for a broad range of clients and are here to help turn your vision into reality.

The majority of our work consists of Architectural Home Design, New Commercial Buildings, Residential Alterations & Additions, Multi-Unit Developments & Hospitality Design.

We offer free initial consultation within Christchurch city. This initial consultation is used to meet and discuss your building project no matter how large or small. It’s where your ideas and priorities are discussed, desired outcomes, budgets and time frames are considered and our professional opinion is offered on the feasibility of your project.

Gravity Architecture offers varying levels of involvement in the design and documentation and our fees are entirely dependent on the level of involvement in each project and therefore are confirmed and agreed with the client before any work is undertaken.

We co-ordinate other consultants into the project if and when required, such as land surveyors, structural engineers, quantity surveyors, construction managers and liaise with the local council on your behalf to ensure your project is built to conform with all district plan rules and requirements as well as the New Zealand Building Code.

We can produce photo-realistic 3d Digital Renderings of your project to help visualize the final outcomes of your project right from the early design stages of the job through to the final design before detailed plans are draughted up for building consent application.
