Tamaki House

Nestled on a steep site, this house maximises functionality and views while taking inspiration from industrial buildings to bring a cost-effective home to a busy family. The design is simple but integrates high-performance elements to ensure low energy consumption and thermal comfort. Outdoor living spaces are thoughtfully incorporated, and privacy is managed with warm timber screens that contrast with the light industrial exterior cladding.

About the
Professional

Fineline is a Nelson-based architecture practice working across Aotearoa. Our work spans residential, hospitality and workplace projects, all underscored by a commitment to sustainable design. 

We create inspiring spaces for everyday people using resources that don't cost the planet. We design with passion and rigour to craft spaces that are beautiful, meaningful, healthy, and light on their environment. As solution-minded creative thinkers, we always seek well-detailed, simple and elegant outcomes. For us, a good project supports individuals to grow, communities to thrive and ecosystems to flourish. We firmly believe that each project holds the potential to reflect the uniqueness of its place and people who inhabit it.

We are committed to delivering excellent service to our clients, offering guidance from project inception to the realisation of the built outcome.
