A sculptural residence on the foothills of Karioi, Raglan Rest harmonizes with its expansive landscape while providing refuge and protection, completed in 2020.

This site on the foothills of Karioi presents a dichotomy of challenge and opportunity. The expansive outlook over the rolling green of Rangitahi Peninsula towards Raglan harbour draws out the inquisitor and explorer. The immense and open landscape informs a robust formal response, and its climatic condition requires an architecture that is willing to offer refuge and protection. Fulfilling its role as a sculptural object and a dwelt space, this building aspires to both honour and contest the intensity of the encompassing landscape.
