MOUNT PLEASANT HOUSE
LOCATION: Christchurch / NZ
STATUS: Completed 2006
This project comprised of an extensive refurbishment and additions to a small 1940's weatherboard hillside cottage. Extensive glazing and sheltered outdoor areas where introduced to capture the fantastic sea views and provide shelter from prevailing winds while still allowing the sun to warm the house during the day.
