Khandallah - Wellington, NZ

A project that makes it all worthwhile.....

Great clients with a sense of fun, aesthetic appreciation and a wonderfully playful art collection. It has been a long time coming (3 years in the planning) but such a satisfying result.

Our brief was to design a home that promoted family living - shared multi-use spaces and very few walls. Designed from the inside out - the exterior shell simply wraps around the interior space. Building envelope compliance constraints resulted in us coming up with a diagonal ridge line that has created a unique shape to the ceiling on the top floor. our client was instrumental in working through a design that played on that shape. it's great when designer and client can work together like that.

About the
Professional

Inside is a multi-disciplinary design studio based in Wellington and Christchurch.

We call ourselves Inside because that’s our focus – how a space works for the occupants. When our scope extends to the outside, we wrap these spaces with simple, elegant architectural forms.

We are approachable. We’re not precious and we like to work with our clients rather than for them.
