By Yardley Architecture
Two simple architectural forms sit inoffensively parallel to one another balancing the building on the small 450m2 site while also giving it a sense of presence. Clad in black cedar this has a strong connection to the neighbouring Bottle Lake Forest located nearby. A new chapter in redefining what a subdivision home could be.
The Prestons subdivision has been extremely well planned and offers all the amenities and services you could require. Therefore this building needed to offer a sense of quality that the clients and the developers where looking for to make this venture unique. Proving architecture can be conceived with a limited budget.
Yardley Architecture engages with the world around it out-with our own discipline. Within the practice, we are often provoked and inspired by social and cultural issues inherent within cities and the rural landscape, allowing for a response in form and materiality. This understanding and passion for material and technological innovation for detail, craftsmanship, texture, and pattern is something that underpins the philosophy of our business, leading to the future development of buildings that respond but also celebrate the tradition of New Zealand’s innovation and our profound respect of the land. The practice additionally takes great inspiration from New Zealand’s stance and response to sustainability.
