ArchiPro Project Summary - New Kinloch Bach: A modern interpretation of mid-century baches, featuring black creosote-covered weatherboard and sunny bay windows, designed for contemporary living while harmonizing with the character of Lake Taupō.

Title:: New Kinloch Bach
Architect:: Fraser Cameron Architects
Category:: Residential/; New Builds
Region:: Kinloch, Waikato, NZ
Completed:: 2024
Building style:: Modern
Photographers:: Jamie Cobel Photographer

New Kinloch Bach is an ode to mid-century baches. It riffs on the black creosote-covered weatherboard and white trim baches dotted around Lake Taupō, with sunny bay windows in the family bedrooms and living area. While this new bach has a larger footprint than the previous Lockwood (to better accomodate contemporary living and holidaying), it sits in scale with the older buildings along the street.

A big thank you to the clients, we are really happy to hear how well the design works for you and your family.
