Ngāhere Hou: A sustainable off-grid retreat featuring a two-bedroom house and separate guest room, designed to embrace stunning views of Kenepuru Sounds while addressing the logistical challenges of remote construction.

Ngāhere Hou is a covenanted property at the head of Kenepuru Sounds in the Marlborough Sounds. 

The client called for a two bedroom house plus separate guest room with bathroom, off the grid, taking in the views to the head of the Sound and West along Kenepuru to Pelorous Sound. They liked caves to soften the space they lived in.

The design response addresses the challenges and cost of building over 2.5 hours each way to Blenheim.
