Inspired by the iconic Doc huts, this building is defined by its pragmatic program: to provide essential shelter for a small family, with the main living area organised around the fireplace, bunk beds and a breezeway, which provides living potential with intermediate protection from the elements. Its colour references the many emblematic New Zealand mountain huts, facilitating its identification in the landscape and reinforcing the local vernacular.

Completed in 2021.

Horopito, National Park.
