Sited within the rugged urban environment of Western Southland this house presents itself to maximise ocean views of the Riverton coastline. A ‘pocket’ site set a street back from the Rocks Highway this house elevates itself enough to capture the forever changing coastal environment. The house is set under a low set mono pitched roof with only roof and wall offsets designed to meet planning rules. Finishes and claddings have been considered not only for their durable requirements but also a nod to the history of the area. Inside, a combination of slopping and flat ceilings provide both intimate and voluminous spaces. This provides the clients a place of retreat but also a place of celebration when the family come to stay. Photographer - Jenna-Lee Shave, Shave photography and Design

Professional Reviews

“We had Matt Anderson-Stewart of MAS Architecture design our home in Otatara. Throughout the entire design process, we found Matt to be extremely professional, efficient and responsive. Matt was very meticulous in his planning and worked to our brief whilst enhancing our vision for what we wanted. Matt would always listen to our ideas, research the materials and advise on what options were best suited. Our site came with a few challenges, of which Matt would engage in further research and was extremely co-operative with liaising with local council. Matt designed our home that is not only great to live in, but aesthetically pleasing with a creative edge. As a result of Matt’s architectural touch, along with our builder, we have a home which we are absolutely thrilled with and adore! We would recommend Matt to anyone looking to foresee an architectural project and would definitely use him again if we embarked on another project.”
